	It's no bug for eval `tset -s` to fail when there's a * in the 
TERMCAP;  the cshell is doing pattern matching.  What you need is

set noglob
eval `tset -s`
unset noglob

	And, if you ever get an AVT, whose TERMCAP has ! characters in it,
you have to fiddle with the histchars cshell variable before and after the tset
to prevent history substitution!
