You should not be seeing the walltime from tc.data level jobs being passed 
through to coaster worker jobs. Coaster worker jobs should be getting a 
different maxwalltime, as documented in previous emails, being some 
multiple plus a constant of a normal job's maxwalltime.

Based on previous emails from Allan, I'm suspicious about provider-pbs 
passing through things correctly (its been a bugridden piece of shit when 
I've tried to use it).

I'll get round to looking at that in the next few days, most likely.

Until then, the least mysterious path is probably to stick with 
gt2:gt2:pbs as your coaster jobmanager of choice.
