[slurm-users] 18.08.4 - batch scripts named "batch" getting rejected.

[Prentice Bisbal]

Yesterday I upgraded from 18.08.3 to 18.08.4. After the upgrade, I found 
that batch scripts named "batch" are being rejected. Simply changing the 
script name fixes the problem. For example:

$ sbatch batch
sbatch: error: ERROR: A time limit must be specified
sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Time limit specification 
required, but not provided

$ mv batch different_name

$ sbatch different_name
Submitted batch job 398507

Not sure if this is a bug in sbatch, my job_submit.lua file, or the lua 
plugin. My job_submit.lua script hasn't been modified since 10/16/2018. 
I was using 18.08.3 since 11/20, and the user that reported this has 
used the same batch script to submit jobs prior to the update w/o any 
issues.

Has anyone else upgraded to 18.08.4? If so, can you replicate this 
issue? I have already reported this to SchedMD. This BugID is 6271.
