Most likely, pdksh is doing something illadvised with its paths like
stripping multiple leading slashes.  I wouldn't expect it to be too
hard to fix.

I really want tcsh to work without having to type "unhash" to start
off with.  I don't expect that would be too hard to fix either.

Bash is what most people use (because that's what we've provided in
the past as the only real shell) so some of these other shells still
have some kinks to work out.  I would like to ship tcsh with Cygwin
releases as well; we'll see I guess...
