Any users of Andrew or rdist should BEWARE of the new Athena prototype
files. (I asked the actual discoverer of the problems to report them
to bugs, but since I haven't seen anything on it, I will report it
myself.)
1. The .cshrc does not correctly notice when the shell is not
interactive. This means that rdist generates the helpful "Version
numbers don't match message."
2. Since the .cshrc sets the path, and since ez forks a shell to run
commands, if you set your path with the /mit/andrew/.attachrc, preview
and print won't work. They rely on the path to be what .attachrc set,
and not what .cshrc does. This is a problem I can fix from the andrew
end, and will fix soon.
