pilot working dir...

[andre-merzky]

            # if no working dir is set assume use home directory
            # will fail if home directory is not the same on remote machine
            # but this is just a guess to avoid failing
            self.working_directory = "~"
            #self.working_directory = "" 

This guess is not avoiding failing. /tmp/%s % uuid.uuid would avoid failing. Or /tmp/bigjob-%s % getpass.getuser()` has some chance of avoiding failing. THe above breaks way too often to be useful -- and gives an error message which is hard to understand...
