Sorry, but this statement is incorrect.  Csh always reads .cshrc no
matter what -- it doesn't care what stdin is.  Other shells may or may
not read startup files, but their behavior does _NOT_ depend on such
an insignificant consideration as the type of fd zero.

If you're an old csh user, you may have come to expect that such
hacks are needed.  But a bug with a workaround is still a bug.
