As I think I sent privately to dschmidt: It's not really a bug.
The first time you hit ^D, it terminates the line. zwrite (like most
programs) simply sees that as a whole line and does another read, so
that the *second* ^D really *is* at the start of line.
What might need changing is the grammar of the question - it
is kind of ambiguous now (ie. zwrite should be patched to recognize ^D
*anywhere*, but stdio may not pass that through correctly :-)
