Doesn't look like it is specific to X11 though.

This happens in Terminal.app as well. It happens to me frequently (although not completely deterministically) when I "kill -9" or "killall" a process that was launched in the background from the Terminal.app command line. The Terminal.app window then closes. Must be a bug in tcsh.

As I mentioned previously, I used bash and I witness this behavior regularly. I believe it is more an issue with pipe vs. pty handling in OS X, perhaps related to the issues with subprocess handling in Emacs (e.g., the most recent mention of which is at [1]).
