Yep; you'd get zip. It's covered in the rules, specifically rule 4(c)(1):
"If one (or any) of [the defs combined to make a single def] is the true
definition of The Word, any votes for the combined definition result in a
point for the [author of the] fictitious definition, and two points for the
voter, EXCEPT THAT the author of the fictitious definition gets no points
for voting for the combined definition." [Emphasis added.]
Seems quite clear to me.
