And there is a list of the "incompatibilities" (more properly
to call them "caveats") is just below the sentence you're
citing from
  https://computing.llnl.gov/linux/slurm/maui.html
Here they are:
{{{
 * Do not configure SLURM to use the "priority/multifactor" plugin as
   it would set job priorities which conflict with those set by Maui.
 * Do not use SLURM's reservation mechanism, but use that offered
   by Maui.
 * Do not use SLURM's resource limits as those may conflict with those
   managed by Maui.
}}}
That's it.  If you'll follow these guidelines, you should be
more-or-less safe in coupling Maui with Slurm.

It should (hadn't checked with 2.4, though), but you should be
aware of some limitations outlined above.
