tcsh bug fix update

Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated tcsh packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The tcsh packages provide an enhanced and widely compatible version of the C shell (csh). The tcsh command language interpreter can be used as an interactive login shell, as well as a shell script command processor.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, the output of the "jobs" built-in command was displayed to standard error instead of standard output. This bug has been fixed, and the output of "jobs" is now correctly displayed to stdout. (BZ#1357127)
- This update fixes several regressions in the tcsh command language interpreter:
- When browsing command history using the <Ctrl+P> or <UpArrow> keys, backslashes are now shown correctly
- A backslash now correctly escapes user-defined aliases; this fixes git-completion
- The output of the "time" built-in command is now correctly captured when used with the "setenv" built-in command
(BZ#1357126)
Users of tcsh are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
