RTFM. Here's the relevant part from tcsh(1):
The shell cannot presently redirect diagnostic output
without also redirecting standard output, but `(command >
output-file) >& error-file' is often an acceptable
workaround. Either output-file or error-file may be
`/dev/tty' to send output to the terminal.
Diagnostics output is synonymous with standard error.
Hope this helps
