As far as I can tell, the /tmp/*_messages files deamons use early in startup
are created without the exclusive flag.  As a result, ordinary users can
create symlinks in their place and cause the daemons to write to arbitrary
files.  The files should either be opened exclusivly or the locations should
be changed to a location not writable by ordinary users.

inst_sge should exit with non-zero exit status if -auto given with non-existant
file.  This should fix:

Perhaps ErrUsage should exit itself?  There look to be other spots in inst_sge
where an exit needs to be added after ErrUsage.

This appears to have been fixed in 6.2u4

We have dozens of places in code formatting job,
jatask and optionally petask ids (in many
different ways).

A function should be created
sge_get_job_task_id(job_id, ja_task_id, pe_task_id)
returning a const char *

and all formatting code should be replaced by a
call of this function.

created a function job_get_id_string(job_id, ja_task_id, pe_task_id)
in sge_job_jatask.* (libgdi) that returns a formatted string
containing the id.
Output format can be localized.

Changed about 2 dozen code pieces outputting job/jatask/petask ids in
different formats - hundreds still to follow! But these changes show
it's worth the effort: The former output often lacked information like
the ja task id, or the pe task id in case of pe tasks making
impossible a precise analysis of error situations.

Improved job_get_id_string:
if ja task id is 0, only output the job id
