Except the code in /usr/src/contrib/tcsh and the code from the port
are very close to being the same. In fact if you copy the files that
differ from ports to contrib the error still persists.

Though... if you copy config.h from ports to /usr/src/bin/csh and
then recompile the problem goes away. The only obvious difference
is that /usr/src/bin/csh/config.h defines SYSMALLOC?
