Here's a bug in the Ultrix 4.0 (RISC) csh. Make a single command
line executing 5 (or more) aliases on it. On a Sun, the 5 aliases execute.
On a DECstation, you get the error message "Alias loop."
Example:
% alias a "/bin/echo a"
% alias b "/bin/echo b"
% alias c "/bin/echo c"
% alias d "/bin/echo d"
% alias e "/bin/echo e"
% a; b; c; d; e
Alias loop.
Yeah, I'll submit an SPR.
