And an interesting tidbit from the house of horrors that is SGE code:

A bunch of variable names in sge_follow.c, have JG in them, e.g. JG_qhostname.
I thought: this must be some highly informative variable naming
system, if only I could crack it (although for my own projects I don't
allow naming systems that are this non-obvious).

>From grepping around, though, it actually seems to be the initials of
an SGE developer, Joachim Graeber :-(

If my students submitted code like this to me in a pull request, I not
only wouldn't merge it, I would be angry at them for even thinking
they might get it past me.  But I guess we don't get to choose when
it's legacy code.
