It's not a myth; I use it here.  Grab the 4.3bsd-reno csh sources from
wuarchive.wustl.edu (128.252.135.4) or wherever else they are.  Then ftp to
ee.cornell.edu (128.84.253.11) and grab

   /pub/tcsh-5.20/tcsh.reno-5.20.02.tar.Z
   
Follow the directions in the tcsh README.

There are also tar files for 4.3bsd and 4.3bsd-tahoe, if that's the csh
sources you have.

Good luck,

Tim
