------------------------


The settings.{csh,sh} files created by the installation fail if
$SGE_ROOT/util/arch cannot be found.

Fix: check 'if [ -x $SGE_ROOT/util/arch ]' within scripts.

I will attempt to submit a suitably modified script util/create_settings.sh script.

Instead of using the temporary variable 'ARCH', the SGE_ARCH variable should be
set and exported. This is particularly useful when a script may also need to be
called outside of a job script - eg, for testing load sensors, or for using any
of the $SGE_ROOT/utilbin/$SGE_ARCH/ utilities within other maintenance and admin
scripts.
