The way I've dealt with the problem is to make the setting of all env
variables conditional.  I have created an env variable called ENVINIT
whose existence indicates that the env variables have already been
created.  I use it like this:

excerpt from .cshrc:

source .envinit

excerpt from .envinit:

if($?ENVINIT != 0) exit
... various setenv's ...
setenv ENVINIT DONE
