Make the shell script trap (shell built-in) this catastrophic error  
and just execute an exit (shell built-in) instead (in last millennium  
this was standard). You can also run shell scripts asynchronously in  
a dedicated temporary buffer by executing it as a shell or compile  
command.


I'm not the bash guru (tcsh user), and its manual page is very long  
for reading it. I remember there is a section about SIGNALs. It  
should give some basic clues.
