Details
An updated tcsh package that fixes the issue of a null pointer dereference in
proc cwd is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

command language interpreter, which can be used as an interactive login shell,
as well as a shell script command processor.
This updated tcsh package resolves the following issue:
* when using the tcsh shell, a null pointer dereference in proc cwd could occur

this issue.
