The following does not work in zsh 2.00.03:

A=abcd
B=ab

echo ${A#$B} answers abcd. However,

echo ${A#ab} answers cd, as it should.

This behaviour was observed in a Sun sparc running 4.03 and in a Mips 6280
under RISC/os 4.52.

Another problem: I could not build zsh in a Sun 3 under 3.5, because the
loader cannot find FD_SET and FD_ZERO, which are used in zle_main.c.

Any help would be apreciated.
