The limitation could be that the login shell is not compiled with LARGEFILE enabled--that was a bug that plagued tcsh in various distros for awhile, though I haven't seen that bug lately. In the past, I ended up getting the Mandrake SRPM for tcsh and porting it into Red Hat to fix the problem, or just using bash.
I think there's a way to use "strace" or "strings" to see if LARGEFILE was enabled when the shell was compiled, but it's been so long I don't remember--maybe someone else can chime in with the answer, or you could dredge it up from the list archives.
