Ooooh!  I like this!  Just cooked a version for csh:

alias jd  'set arg="\!:1"; cd `(find . -name "*${arg}*" -type d -print) \
    | head -1`' # jump to a directory

You have to use a variable to capture the alias argument, because the
history (argument) substitution syntax collides with the trailing *
in the argument to -name.  I want to go to the first match, so the head
command is necessary to avoid "Ambiguous" errors.  I have "," aliased to
pop me back to the previous directory if find guesses wrong.
