I'm using tcsh 6.09.00 from the Cygwin 1.0 CD in the meantime but I
have checked it with my 6.08.00 port. It works on NT and W2K.
Unfortunately I don't have W9X so I can't talk about it.

The `write' call can't write to stdout and returns -1.

Do you have an idea why this could happen? Did you change any
other detail in your system which may be related to that?
