Ugh. Please don't use these patches. 6.01 was poorly ported (my fault)
and this patch only adds more kludges on kludges (sorry). Rather, get the
(long since) ported version of tcsh 6.02 from any site that mirrored
good old banjo.concert.net. All you need to do for GCC 2.2.2d is to
comment out the emulated sigsetmask() from tc.sig.h and tc.sig.c.
I haven't made a new release, because the the change is so trivial.
Oh, there is also a little patch that fixes the signal list.
Btw, there are also new binaries floating around. Could someone
give a pointer to where these can be found?

I'd like to see proper support for locales, wait3() and/or wait4(),
before making a new release. This requires changes both in the kernel
and the libraries.
