Ok, this is a new bug in pre2 or pre3. This is the quick patch:

                list_pipe = 0;

However, shouldn't the ifdef stuff be in zsetlimit? This way you don't
have to add ifdefs in every place you want to change limits.

This is the symptoms. I haven't had time to look into this, it is a bit
hard to debug these things without a working debugger :-)
