Not very easy, unfortunately.  The zsh.mdh file includes all the .epro
files, which are generated during the zsh build and may differ among
operating systems.

That could work, but only for modules that didn't need to reference any
of the external symbols other than addbuiltin() etc.  That's a pretty
small subset of the current crop of modules.

The URL was

I haven't looked to see if it's still there.
