[Swift-devel] _swiftwrap logging causes problems for users on shared computer servers

This line in _swiftwrap is causing problems when multiple users are running coasters on the same MCS compute server:

--
COMMANDLINE=$@

echo $0 $COMMANDLINE >> /tmp/swiftwrap.out
--

It creates a file owned by the user, and causes the next user's jobs to fail (and/or generate a message).

This line looks to me like a debugging fossil. Im going to comment out this echo in my test trunk (which several of us are testing from) and see if it has any ill effect.

I think we should leave it disabled, but can leave it in as a comment for debugging hints. Need to check when/why it was added.
