Comment 1 Justin Garrison 2014-08-22 15:35:06 UTC 
Another bug that I came across with the existing 4.3.10 version of zsh is in command completion. Logging in via ssh with a command completion with an r causes zsh to fail to load with the following error

*** glibc detected *** -zsh: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000001473db0 ***
*** glibc detected *** -zsh: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000001473db0 ***
*** glibc detected *** -zsh: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000001473db0 ***

more info can be found here http://www.zsh.org/mla/workers/2012/msg00688.html

I didn't test with 4.3.11 but the bug does not happen with 5.0.5.

The above issue is unrelated to this bug.  It seems to be fixed in 5.0.1:

Please open a separate bug with clear steps to reproduce.
