My idea was to hack $SGE_JOB_SPOOL_DIR/environment in the prolog to prevent /bin/bash from complaining. I've been able to do that using a mix of starter_method and QRSH_WRAPPER so it's no longer relevant. But we run the prolog as root anyway, because it performs node health-checks which require root permissions.
