Seems more and more little 'features' keep poping up the more i use
bsd...the latest is when someone is working on the console and someone
else is working on a vt220 attached to com2, csh likes to core dump
on the console user, loging them out. 

		THIS ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A CD COMMAND!!

it seems to have only happen after a 'cd ..' to be specific.
solution thus far was for the person on the console to use sh.
anyone else have this problem or anything similar with csh...
