It's apparently tcsh -- I'm using tcsh-6.07.02 from ports.  The problem
goes away with csh but, eh, I'd really rather use tcsh.  Here's the trace
from opening an xterm (does that help?):

   224 ktrace   RET   ktrace 0
   224 ktrace   CALL  readlink(0x8066eaa,0xefbfd258,0x3f)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/etc/malloc.conf"
   224 ktrace   RET   readlink -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  mmap(0,0x1000,0x3,0x1002,0xffffffff,0,0,0)
   224 ktrace   RET   mmap 134324224/0x801a000
   224 ktrace   CALL  break(0x5000)
   224 ktrace   RET   break 0
   224 ktrace   CALL  break(0x6000)
   224 ktrace   RET   break 0
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/sbin/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/bin/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/usr/sbin/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/usr/bin/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/usr/games/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/usr/local/bin/xterm"
   224 ktrace   RET   execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
   224 ktrace   CALL  execve(0xefbfd320,0xefbfd7e8,0xefbfd7f0)
   224 ktrace   NAMI  "/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm"

The error message shows up if I'm running as root or as a regular user.
Any ideas how to make it go away?

thanks!
