Comment:

 I believe this is fixed. Bluewaters support replied to my ticket (last May
 but apparently I myself never replied and am not aware of having received
 any emails). The line in question now reads:
 {{{
 #WRKDIR=/tmp/`date +%s` Change per BWSS-601 tbouvet 05/08/14
 WRKDIR=/tmp/`date +%s.%N`
 mkdir $WRKDIR
 }}}
 which appends the number of nanoseconds. The probably makes it much less
 likely to happen again (though I'd still have preferred if $$ was added
 for the PID as well in case the nanosecond time is not really updated
 every single nanoseconds but eg only every 1/50 s or so).
