Subject: [PATCH] Adding print -l ${(u)foobar} workaround for pre-4.2.0 shells

This also enabled the dirstack magic for such shells again.
Also, this patch only sets defaults for DIRSTACKSIZE and introduces
a new variable DIRSTACKFILE (which defaults to ~/.zdirs). That way
you may change these defaults in your .zshenv for example.
