Hi Dmitry,

That's unfortunate :(..

- Release notes help various groups determining/mitigating risk when upgrading 
FreeBSD. In particular, if you're a consumer of tcsh, a new version could break 
existing scripts, or alternatively, make them work better(/with less hacks).
- MFCing changes like this would be incredibly helpful. In theory, new versions 
should result in a combination of bugfixes to existing features and 
enhancements.
- It makes it easier to deal with toolchain upgrades.
- In theory, if the version of the newer forked/tip branch is equivalent to the 
older forked branch, it's easier to assume that the behavior on the two 
branches is equivalent.
    Personally, I don't care too much about *csh, but I know people that do, 
and I work for a company that kind of does, because it affects users logging 
into our appliances.
Thanks!
-Ngie
