Keep forgetting to say this, to anyone who asked what shell im using. 
For root I use the default csh, for my non-root I use tcsh. I run 
fluxbox and Eterm.
              ^^^^^

that's the bug:

Eterm/src/command.c:install_handlers():
   signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN);
(called from main)

eterm is simply ignoring SIGPIPE and not changing this for the running shell.  zsh resets this to SIG_DFL, but sh/tcsh don't.  I think that's a bug in Eterm.

cheers
