I'm also in the unfortunate position of using that atrocity of a VCS. When you set dynamic view, a new csh-like shell is started. If you started Emacs before that, it forked from the parent shell so has no visibility of the new shell. You could run xterm&, set view, switch to the new xterm and find you won't see your view's files for the same reason. I wouldn't expect any issue in snapshot views.
