D'oh!  I already have the answer:  Just tried the .02 sources instead, and
found the following in the FAQ:

9.  I compiled tcsh using gcc, and when I start up it says:
    tcsh: Warning no access to tty (Invalid Argument).
    Thus no job control in this shell

    Your <sys/ioctl.h> file is not ansi compliant. You have one of 3 choices:
        a. Run fixincludes from the gcc distribution.
        b. Add -traditional to the gcc flags.
        c. Compile with cc.


SOrry for the bandwidth.  Maybe this will have helped somebody else trying
to build .01

Marc 'em!
