setenv problem in C-shell

The C-shell complains with:
	setenv: Too many arguments
when executing
	eval `tset -s -Q -I -m 'dialup:?vt100'`
where the vt100 termcap plus the noglob and TERM output of tset
is greater than 512 characters.  This is on our 4.2 780 as well
as our UTX 1.3 Gould.  Several other systems I have access to have
the same problem.  I briefly looked at the code but havn't
determined the problem.

Before spending more time on it, I'd like to know if anyone else
has fixed this bug.
