Been trying to get tcsh up and working lately, and have been have some problems
gettin the job control to work.

For some reason, when I first load tcsh, I get the following message:

Warning: no access to tty (Inappropriate ioctl for device).
Thus no job control in this shell.


A trip through the code in sh.c didn't really shed all  that much light
on the matter, and #undef'ing VFORK didn't help.

Has anybody else had this problem, and if so, what can be done to get rid of
it?  I really cannot live without job control....

Marc 'em!
