Ok, it is probably tsch.  Check if you have this in /etc/csh.cshrc, I have it 
on Suse 11.2:

#
# Avoid trouble with Emacs shell mode
#
if ($?EMACS) then
  setenv LS_OPTIONS '-N --color=none -T 0';
  path tset -I -Q
  path stty cooked pass8 dec nl -echo
# if ($?tcsh) unset edit
endif


You can force Emacs to use sh or bash if you customize shell-file-name.  I 
don't know if Emacs should be able to handle this.
