Neither really. First note that zsh doesn't claim to be fully compatible with
/bin/sh (or POSIX-compliant for that matter.)  Secondly, zsh has a lot
of options defining how it works.  In this case the option
SH_WORD_SPLIT defines which behaviour will be used.  If this option is
set it will replace the newline with a space.  If it is not set (which
is the default) the newline will be retained as it is.
