bash being the default shell, tcsh's configuration files have,
apparently, bit-rotted. When started directly -- instead of from bash --
a bunch of utilities (from /usr/bin) are not found.

Adding the following

	setenv PATH "/usr/bin:${PATH}"

at the beginning of /etc/csh.cschrc provides a workaround. Note the
quotes -- on a typical Windoze machine, PATH will contain several
instances of "Program Files\Foo", which causes setenv to fail with too
many arguments".

Please, fix and consider testing with both of the shell-families before
the next release. Thank you!
