The way I've dealt with the problem is to make the setting of all env
variables conditional. I have created an env variable called ENVINIT
whose existence indicates that the env variables have already been
created. I use it like this:
excerpt from .cshrc:
source .envinit
excerpt from .envinit:
if($?ENVINIT != 0) exit
... various setenv's ...
setenv ENVINIT DONE
