   A nice solution would be to have the -f flag, and to run ~/.cshrc
   manually in the script *if* $SHELL is /bin/csh.
   
   Would this this be a problem?


then you break what 'which(1)' does for users who have a valid and
working .cshrc but their $SHELL isn't set to /bin/csh.


which is for csh users.  it isn't for anyone else.  that's just how
it is.
