Well,.... A RTIR 1.0.1RC1 install involves removing the old 1.0.0 tree.
That's somewhat "fresh" to me. But,... point taken,.. I already had 
the old 1.0.0 data in my database, yes.

I didn't figure that in this case an upgrade would do an "install 
1.0.1RC1 and only check the old data in the database for 
correctness",... so I did a make install.

My fault.,... just checked the scrips in the 4 RTIR queues, yep,... 
triple occurences.... OK, deleted these extra scrips.

But there is still another issue, see below:
