I have also seen this and reported it to the zsh list but haven't gotten  
any replies.

I _have_ updated /etc/shells.

I _am_ running zsh2.2.0 (on a NeXT 040 Cube running NextStep2.1 OS)

I invoke ZSH as my default shell, and usually access it via the
Terminal application (vt100 emulator) provided by NeXT.  When I
invoke multiple copies (with different PTYs as the SHTTY device),
exiting one causes all copies to exit.

I also tried this by having the Workspace invoke shell windows, and
the same phenomenom happens.

I happens on more than one NeXT system (040 cube and a Turbo).

But, it does NOT happen if I use the Communicae VT100 emulator to
invoke a shell window via a PTY/TTY pair.

It does not happen with any other shell (sh,csh).

I'm convinced it's got something to do with kills going to the
process group, but I can't quite nail it.   

To make it more specific:

   login with zsh as shell
   zsh% exec gdb zsh
   gdb> run -
   zsh% exit
   gdb: job terminated normally
   gdb> quit
   This window exits and so do all others running zsh.

If anybody has any ideas, I'd sure appreciate them.  Most of the time,
I remember the quirk, and don't close the second or third window.
But then, there are the times when I've got lengthy editing up in one
window, and accidentally close another.  Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhh!!!!
