Problem Description:
1116833 There was a race condition in 'at' such that between the time one
process running 'at' did a stat() to make sure a job file with a
particular filename doesn't already exist before using that filename
another process running 'at' could create a job file using that same
name, and that process's job file would then be over-written by
the first process.
