That was my assumption, too; but why don't {csh|tcsh} do it in one atomic
step, as {sh|ksh|bash} do? Go figure?
Anyway, I doubt we'd have time to try a beta-1.4, if the real thing will be
coming out early next week. But once it's officially out, I'll see whether
we can move this somewhere reasonably high on the priority list.
Thanks ...
