* t/self-check-reexec.tap: When searching for a suitable non-Bash shells, be sure to reject any shell that is Zsh "in disguise" (as can be found on some Debian systems, where /bin/ksh can be symlinked to /bin/zsh4). This is required because our testsuite does not support older versions of Zsh if not imperfectly, and that was causing the test to fail in the setup just described.
