I think I've found the problem: parse.c doesn't get recompiled when version.h changes, so zcompile might output the wrong version, so the shell can't check properly when the ZWC file is loaded. Luckily, this won't happen if the shell is built from scratch, so it doesn't affect the fast majority of installed versions. I think the fix is as simple as changing the dependency, though I decided I felt happier if the header for the ZWC file had uninitialised bits set to null bytes rather than (say) the password that was lying around in memory. Thanks for your help.
