I can reproduce this error in tcsh. I believe the <(command) contruct
may not be available in tcsh. If you figure out a way to do the
<(command) in tcsh, please let me know.

It works fine for me in these two versions of bash:
GNU bash, version 4.1.5(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
GNU bash, version 3.2.39(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
I can even run this command from both bash and tcsh:
bash -c 'parallel -a <( seq 6 ) -a <( seq 6 -1 1 ) echo'
In either case it is not a bug in GNU Parallel - at most a bug in the
documentation. You can do this as a workaround:
seq 6 > col1
seq 6 -1 1 > col2
parallel -a col1 -a col2 echo
