zsh/fc: bad option: -s

The man page for zshell's 'fc' builtin tells me I can use the -s option to skip the editor.  But any time I try to do that, I get the message

$ fc -s -2
zsh: bad option: -s

I've got the zsh package version 5.0.0-2 installed from the repositories.  Any idea what's going on?

Thanks.

I see no -s option anywhere for 'fc' in zshbuiltins(1).

Re: zsh/fc: bad option: -s

'man fc' gets you the POSIX Programmer's Manual definition of fc.

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of
       this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux  manual  page  for  details  of
       Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
