We are going to revert the tcsh exit value behaviour to the CSH default (as it used to work in tcsh for many years/decades). There will be $tcsh_posix_status variable available to opt-in the POSIX-like behaviour (as in bash, ksh, etc.).

$ false | true
$ echo $?
1
$ set tcsh_posix_status
$ false | true
$ echo $?
0
