Here is a little csh "misfeature" that I ran into by mistake. When
something is piped into a "csh" built-in command, the "csh" goes
wacko. It behaves the same way under 4.{1,2,3}BSD on vaxen. Here is a
sample:

4% echo | source
source: Too few arguments.
5% Reset tty pgrp from 1406 to 1381

5% jobs
[1]    Done                 echo |
6% jobs
7%

I don't have access to C-Shell source at the moment. Any ideas?
