Spencer, the "set noglob" would NOT be too late (at least on our
fairly stock 4.1bsd).
Sorry, but Spencer's right. The reason your test worked, while the
"tset" invocation doesn't, is that tset is invoked inside backquotes.
When tset produces things like "li#24:co#80" the C shell interprets
everything from the first # on as a comment. The set noglob apparently
doesn't get around it. (This is on a fairly old 4.1BSD system.)
