Here's what I get with zsh 5.9:

    % docker run -e TERM -it --rm zshusers/zsh:5.9 zsh
    # cd /usr/bin
    # PATH=.:$PATH whence -mavS zsh
    zsh is ./zsh
    zsh is /usr/bin/zsh

Does this look the way you want?

How do I get "zsh is zsh" in the output? Are you perchance on an old
version of zsh? Which one?

Roman.
