Actually, R' Zevin's argument defending the Avudraham was that the
shehechiyanu at Qiddush is on the chag, including all its mitzvos. Which
is how he distinguished that shehechiyanu from the one made on Purim
when reading megillah. Since Purim isn't a chag meriting a shehechiyanu,
there is no parallel "umbrella", and one needs to have each of the
mitzvos of the day in mind.
Is the shehechiyanu actually on the sukkah? What's the source for that? I
raised a third possibility -- that the shehechiyanu (like the birkhas
hamitzvah) includes /building/ the sukkah. Not the cheftzah itself.
Tir'u baTov!
