I donno if it's still true because I'm limited to OS 10.3.9 for compatibility with my SE/30 file server.
Having used csh since before Macintosh, and even after Mac via MPW's version, I was really surprised to find that PATH and SHELL were a problem in OS neXt. Environment.plist and ~/.tcshrc seemed not to be working at all.
What I found was that the startup script for tcsh and csh in /etc was getting executed AFTER environment.plist and ~/.tcshrc.
The PATH variable and perhaps SHELL were getting arbitrarily reset. I left those files in place but removed the contents. Yes. I filed a bug but never heard anything.
