Version 3.6.2 of Makeflow
Release Notes: In WorkQueue, memory errors that lead to a SEGFAULT, race conditions in signal handling for workers, and incorrect handling of the -C option where a worker would not use the same catalog server as work_queue_pool were corrected. Tasks now have a unique process group to properly kill all task children on abort. Escape codes such as \n and \t are now properly interpreted in Makeflow files.
