That would be me.

1. Why don't you ask about this on the tcsh mailing lists?
2. OR why don't you send me a patch that fixes the bug?
3. OR why don't you test to see if you are running under tcsh and use a
   different code path:
	 if ( $?tcsh ) then
		 # something that will work with tcsh
     else
         # existing code
	 endif
