    That's strange, because BSD_ECHO is disabled in my RC files :??
Oh, shit, I know what the problem is... In my /etc/zshenv I disable
the 'echo' builtin so the coreutils one is used instead, and this
file is run even when zsh is invoked with '-f', isn't it?

    Can it be caused by some option I set on my /etc/zshenv? In my
zshenv I just export some variables, set the options I want to set
for all shell flavors, declare some functions I want available for
all shells and disable a couple of builtins (this should go to
/etc/zshrc...).

    First test was under user 'user' (UID 100, few privileges, it can
even access pty's), last under root, and the result was the same).
