   The documentation in the Squish Developers Kit (Version 2.00) agrees:   
      
             Certain message systems, such as the FTSC-0001 *.MSG format,   
             do not store zone  information with each message.   When the   
             API  encounters such a message  and no zone  is present, the   
             specified  zone will  be used  instead.   A 'def_zone'  of 0   
             indicates  that nothing  is  to be  inferred about  the zone   
             number of a  message, and  in that case,  the API  functions   
             will return  0 as the  zone number for  any message with  an   
             unknown zone.   
      
   But FTS-0001 defines zone and point fields since 1989.
