Be warned that the sipb tcsh (6.04) won't run on Solaris 2.5.1.  If
you're lucky, you'll get an error message like this:
ld.so.1: /afs/sipb/project/tcsh/tcsh: fatal: libucb.so.1: can't open file: errno=2
Killed

I wasn't so lucky.  My initial xterm was dying with no error message
printed in the console.  I learned that it isn't enough to check if the
shell exists and is executable; you should also see if it works.  New
lines in my .environment file:

set tcshell=/afs/sipb/project/tcsh/tcsh
$tcshell -c echo && setenv SHELL $tcshell && setenv hosttype $machtype
