It seems that this is a result of the same problem described here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-08/msg00352.html I have a fix/workaround/hack for this problem, see this thread on the cygwin-developers list: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-08/msg00021.html With the dlopen patch in place and rebuilding the zsh modules using the newly built libcygwin.a, the zsh testsuite does not fail in the above way. I get 3 testsuite failures, but they are not related to that problem.
