I took the current tcsh from ohio-state and patched the latest tahoe
csh with it, hacked upon the failures, and am testing amongst a few
users here.

If you want my diffs for the tahoe distribution, you can ftp to
csd4.milw.wisc.edu (129.89.2.4), user anonymous, and take file:

73633 Mar  8 23:34 /usr/spool/uucppublic/tcsh5.12.tahoe.diffs.Z

preferably late at night or early morning.
