Why does AutoBuild bomb and say “word too long”?

When Autobuild runs a sub-process it uses csh to run the subprocess. When the subprocess is run, a few additions are made to the $PATH variable. If your $PATH variable is already very long, this can sometimes make it too long for csh. Solution #1: install a new csh so that any length $PATH is ok.
