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


DESCRIPTION:
The behaviour between -masterq <wc_queue_list> and -hard -q <wc_queue_list> is
incoherent. The problem is obvious already from the relation of soft queue
request and master queue request.

E.g.

 # qsub -pe make 2 -masterq A -soft -q B script.sh

this states that an 'A' queue instance is a must for the master task while 'B'
queue instances should be chosen for slave tasks if available. If no 'B' queue
instance is availalbe any other queue instance shall be fine for slave tasks.

Now when the "-soft" modifier is skipped

 # qsub -pe make 2 -masterq A -q B script.sh

the only reasonable meaning can be that an 'A' queue instance is a must *and*
'B' queue instances is a must for the slave tasks.

Unfortunately the job without "-soft" modifier never gets an assignment since
'A' and 'B' represent for disjunct sets of queue instances.

Note: This issue is akin to issue #2378.

Fixed in Maintrunk for 6.2.

The fix was made after V62beta2_TAG so it won't be covered in beta2.

Although the issue is fixed per se, the queue listed after -masterq is always added automatically to the list of queues in the -q switch.
Means: slots for the slaves can be scheduled to the queue where only the master slot is supposed to be.
