Where are you getting your documentation, Doug? Since when, if you type
% csh foo
does it feed "foo" to the Bourne shell? This is not correct, and certainly
not normal! If I feed a script to csh, csh had better run it, since that
was my intention. Otherwise, it would be rather redundant, what?

System V, release 3 does not support #! execs. I know, because I *work*
with them all bloody day. #! is constantly ignored.
