Sorry, could you clarify which thing looks weird to you?

} Also, compsys doesn't seem to like it currently:
} alias \{=echo
} {<tab> # segfaults zsh currently (not sure if someone else brought it up
} in the original thread)

Again I'm not sure precisely what "it" means, but *without* my patch from
workers/34781, I get this:

torch% alias \{=echo
torch% {<TAB>

*With* 34781, there is no "BUG:" or segmentation fault.  So I think that
is justification enough to commit it, and we can revisit if necessary.
