bug in csh?

Question 1:
    I was trying to kill all the processes on one machine except the ones
owned by me and root. The command I used was:

    kill -9 `ps -ef | egrep "root|PID|sherry" | awk '{print $2}'`

    Then my xterm disappeared. Later I found out that "kill -9 `cat /dev/null`"
kills my xterm too. This does not happen with sh, ksh or tcsh. Is it a bug
in csh? If it is, is there a patch for it?

Question 2:
    My user id is changed from "heqianho" to "sherry" due to name changing.
Is there a way to have my old email address changed or taken out from the
mailing list without recreating the account?

    Any help will be appreciated.
