internally we're just calling vfprintf, so I think that would work.

Condor does not propgate any binaries around. 

Condor makes it easy to upgrade in place, if new binaries become available, but
it's up to you to somehow get new binaires to each machine. Common ways of doing
this include putting bin/ in a shared NFS or AFS file server, or using a tool 
like cfengine to automatically copy binaries around.
