prompt problem



After a "zsh -f", source the following:

precmd()
{
  psvar[1]=$?
  if [[ $psvar[1] -gt 128 ]] then
    local sig=$signals[$(($psvar[1]-127))]
    [[ -n $sig ]] && psvar[1]=$sig
  fi
}

TRAPCLD() { [[ -o interactive && -n $TTY ]] && precmd }

PS1="%m:%20<...<%~%<<%(?..[%1v])%(#.#.>) "

then execute

  { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }

and interrupt it with Ctrl-C.

I can see two unexpected behaviors (not always reproducible, one
needs to try several times), as seen here:

ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[INT]> ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[INT]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[0]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%
ypig:~[0]> { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 } | { sleep 3 }
^C%

So, sometimes the prompt is output twice. This seems to be a bug.

I sometimes get a "[0]" instead of "[INT]". This one may be due
to the fact that $? is 0 in the trap. I wonder whether this is
correct. At least the behavior doesn't seem to be consistent
with:

ypig:~> sleep 5 &
[1] 9217
ypig:~> blah
zsh: command not found: blah
ypig:~[127]> 
ypig:~[127]> 
[1]  + done       sleep 5
ypig:~[127]> 
ypig:~[127]> echo $?
127

where the value of $? seems to be preserved after "sleep 5" has
terminated.
