It's not overloading WIDGET_INT, it's overloading ZLE_VIOPER - because
those are the only cases of builtins that want the opposite case (point
to the caller).  Testing WIDGET_INT is only necessary because the sense
of setbindk is reversed from the sense of ZLE_VIOPER.

At the moment that's not true; a widget implemented in shell can never
safely assume that $WIDGET points to itself.
