PATCH: Re: More incompatibility (word splitting)

} It sounds like Bart's original patch will have to do for the time being.

Here's the patch as I'm willing to commit it right now.  I'm going to be
out of town all next week, so I'm not going to be able to mess with it
any further, and I don't want to put something really broken into CVS
right before I disappear.

This includes the hunk from 13455 and one line from 13452, plus a comment
explaining the shortcomings of the code as it stands.  The effect is that
the ${1+"$@"} case is no longer worse than in 3.0.8, though the ${=1+"$@"}
case is still no better; but "${(A)foo=$@}" should be much better.
