Description Jan Iven 2002-03-25 08:37:38 UTC 
Description of Problem:


Defining an alias and a shell function with the same name and trying to
execute it crashes ZSH shell.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

zsh-4.0.2-2

How Reproducible:

always.

Steps to Reproduce:
    [lxshare002d] /home/test > zsh
    [lxshare002d] ~ % alias xx='echo ALIAS'
    [lxshare002d] ~ % xx
    ALIAS
    [lxshare002d] ~ % xx()
    function> { echo FUNC }
    [lxshare002d] ~ % which xx
    xx: aliased to echo ALIAS
    [lxshare002d] ~ % xx
    Segmentation fault

Actual Results:

crash, backtrace looks rather recursive...


Expected Results:

either function or alias results, or at least an error message..
