PATH doesn't work?!

I've just upgraded to OS X 10.2 Jaguar and some of my scripts no longer work. It seems that my own personal bin directory is no longer searched for some reason, even though it's there in my path.

In .tcshrc I have the following:

setenv PATH "~/bin:${PATH}:/Developer/Tools:/usr/local/bin"

% echo $PATH
/Users/rolf/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/Developer/Tools:/usr/local/bin
% echo $path
/Users/rolf/bin /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /Developer/Tools /usr/local/bin
% rehash
% jad
jad: Command not found
% ~/bin/jad
Usage: jad [option(s)] <filename(s)>
....
% /Users/rolf/bin/jad
Usage: jad [option(s)] <filename(s)>
....
% which jad
jad: Command not found
% echo $shell
/bin/tcsh
%

Other items in the path are correctly found, so the only thing I can think of is that it's because my home directory is actually on another volume and I have a symbolic link from /Users/rolf to my actual home directory, but I've had no problems with this approach so far (pre Jaguar).

This seems fairly fundamental to me, why doesn't PATH work in 10.2 ?

Regards,
