Globus GRAM defines a scratch directory where jobs can optionally put  
their files. Condor uses this directory when it submits jobs to  
Globus. The default location is $(HOME)/.globus/scratch. It looks  
like the $(HOME) part is being lost. You can set the default in  
$GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/gram-service-*/jndi-config.xml. The parameter is  
named 'scratchDirectory'.

Hmm, looking at the standard installation for Globus 4.0.1, the  
setting is commented out. I'll have to see if that triggers the  
behavior you're seeing.
