the name to stay the same, not just the inode.  I also verified it was
not a characteristic of the specific shell.  I got the same behavior in
Zshell as well as sh.
I overlooked that, but I don't *think* the shell makes a difference on 
this issue.

FWIW -

I was using the default tcsh on OS X, was an admin and wheel member, but 
not su'ed to root.

On OpenBSD it was ksh, on FreeBSD bash - both logged-in on the console 
as root, not su'ed.
