Hi,

I tried 8.0.0e yesterday and immediately hit some problem. The expansion
of variables in paths seems to have been changed (w.r.t 8.0.0d) and now
gives some surprising results, such as

                                     Resulting output file
Job option                      8.0.0a                  8.0.0e
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-o out.$HOSTNAME                out.node223             node222
-o $HOSTNAME.out                node223.out             node222.out
-o $HOSTNAME.$TASK_ID           node223.$TASK_ID        - (endless loop (?) if 
$TASK_ID unset)
-t 6 -o $HOSTNAME.$TASK_ID      node223.6               node2226


The routine is expand_path() in daemons/execd/get_path.c .
I didn't do much analysis due to lack of time but went for the previous version
of that routine. But the issue definetely needs a 2nd look.
