+1 for this :)
Why is it that everybody wants EVERYTHING configurable from
with/without mozilla and we need to cope with every buggy freetype
version (as example, insert your favorite "system" library here), but
all of a sudden it would be considered a good idea imposing a shell on
people ?
It is of course a good idea to impose a *shell* on people. ;) SCNR,
but I think tcsh is much inferior to bash or even sh when it comes to
scripting. See for example the bash vs. tcsh definitions of
AUGMENT_LIBRARY_PATH at the end of
<http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/cws/sb104/solenv/inc/unx.mk>.
That is also the reason why I would support completely dropping support
for tcsh from the OOo code base.

using csh for scripting is not a good idea anyway:
