I don't set any tcsh variables in my .tcshrc file. Anyhow:

tcsh has the shell variable 'addsuffix' set by default, which controls
whether tab completion adds a '/' to paths. If you turn this off
('unset addsuffix', then '$HOME<tab>' gives the same as bash. But with
addsuffix unset, you have to type the trailing slash before using
path completion. So the tab completion behaviour in tcsh and bash
differs.
