Heh, you'll never know what you would get until you ask.  I
temporarily run chsh on myself to use tcsh as my login shell,
and sure enough I am getting the error.

fatal: protocol error: bad line length character: 75 70 64 61

It reads "u p d a"; most likely the command name we are running,
which is "update".  I think it is spitting out an error message
or something silly like that saying "update hook is not
executable".  Let me dig a bit further and report later.

This is with my previous patch; you do not have to update to
1.5.0-rc1 -- it would not fix anything in this area.
