tcsh uses the csh style of nested backticks, where the inner backticks
are doubled instead of backslashed.  So the backticks don't introduce
any extra level of backslash parsing.

Also of note when testing this sort of thing is that tcsh's echo
parses backslash escapes like bash's "echo -e" does:

bash$ echo '\\'
\\

tcsh$ echo '\\'
\
