Package: zsh
Version: 4.3.0-dev-2-1
Severity: normal

When zsh hasn't yet printed its prompt and I typeahead part of a
command, when zsh finally prints its prompt it first prints a
reverse-video "%" and moves to the next line, leaving the ugly
typeahead and uglier "%" visible.  Thus, for example, if I start an
xterm and typeahead the characters "cd" before the prompt appears,
this is how my screen looks:

    cd[%]
    % cd

where [] depicts reverse video.  I've eliminated my precmd and
preexec, switched xterm programs (xterm and rxvt), and simplified
my prompt (PS1='x'), and this behavior remains.
