I don't recall how this applies to csh/tcsh, but you may need to export
the variables.
Here is a posix bourne shell example
FOO=value
BLAH=value2

export FOO BLAH

if you don't use export, then the variables are local to the script.
Exporting them makes them available to the parent process.

My $0.02.
