You can't just make an ASM program for the TI-86 that emulates ZShell and be
able to run TI-85 ASM programs. The whole calculator is different. Most
programs make use of more of the calculator's resources than just the ROM
calls, and the memory locations are certainly all different.

Shouldn't it be possible to write one asm program for the 86 that would
perform the same functions as zshell, instead of having to recompile
them?  There are some programs whose authors have 'dissapeared' or left
the programming scene, and no source to recompile would be available.
