4.0.1-pre-1

[Peter Stephenson <pws@xxxxxxx>]

I have uploaded zsh-4.0.1-pre-1.tar.gz to the archive in the development
subdirectory.

  ftp://ftp.zsh.org/pub/development/zsh-4.0.1-pre-1.tar.gz

and (eventually) mirrors.

Bart's change for nested parameter substitution is still to go in.  Other
than that, the only things missing before a release are any remaining code
for signal queueing (see 13365: I suspect it's already a good deal safer
than in any previous release, however), and minor changes to the
documentation to reflect the new release.

If there are any outstanding bugs you feel still need to be fixed, please
report them again.

The changes since 3.1.9-dev-8 are as follows.
