unnecessary confusion if, for example, both DEBUG and EXIT traps
were set. The new behaviour is more compatible with other shells.
+- New option TRAPS_ASYNC which if set allows traps to run while the
+ shell is waiting for a child process. This is the traditional zsh
+ behaviour; POSIX requires the option to be unset. In sh/ksh
+ compatibility mode the option is turned off by default and the option
+ letter -T turns it on, for compatibility with FreeBSD sh.
New features between zsh versions 4.0 and 4.2
