Well I think that this problem is not so much with tcsh as freebsd. If
tcsh wants to pull this kind of crap, fine.
But I really think it is a mistake for freebsd to put a copy of tcsh in
/bin and call it csh. Folks and programs that rely on old csh get funny
surprises when tcsh is called csh. For what, so that there is no tcsh
in /shells?
I am sure I do not have to elucidate on the problems this can cause.
