The bad news is that Condor 6.4.5 doesn't handle staging of 
stdout/stderr back into the GASS cache correctly.  The good news is that 
this is fixed in Condor 6.5.5.

However, are you sure that file staging is going to work out for real 
jobs?  I mean, if you need to access any other input files, then you'll 
have to hack the Condor jobmanager to specify in the submit file that 
these input files should be transferred, or you'll have to require that 
submitters include the correct Globus RSL string to make it happen.  
Note that if you do it via the RSL string, then you shouldn't have to 
change your Condor jobmanager at all.
