 # BUGS:
 #
+# In the interests of expediency, numeric options (max-procs, max-lines,
+# etc.) are range-checked only when their values make a difference to the
+# end result.  Because of the way zsh handles variables in math context,
+# it's possible to pass the name of a variable as the value of a numeric
+# option, and the value of that variable becomes the value of the option.
+#
 # "Killed by a signal" is determined by the usual shell rule that $? is
 # the signal number plus 128, so zargs can be fooled by a command that
 # explicitly exits with 129+.  Also, zsh prior to 4.1.x returns 1 rather
