New description:

 If I have two Cactus trees both using the same configuration names and the
 same simulation directory,  I believe that the executable cache in
 simulations/CACHE will suffer from collisions between the cached
 executables in the different Cactus trees.  A solution would be to use a
 unique name for the executable, just as is done when purging simulations
 to the TRASH directory.
