I'm seeing some things with at and LD_LIBRARY_PATH that may be normal,
but I haven't found any information on... Does at normally insert the
UID and GID into the LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Why are there control characters
around them?

Doing a "more" of an at script shows the following for LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH;
LD_LIBRARY_PATH='M-^?383M-^?0M-^?/apg/0800/mercator:/usr/sybase/sybase_1
200/OCS-12_0/lib:/var/opt/3mhis/pps/bin/OSF1:/u01/app/oracle/product/9.0
.1/lib'

Using vi with the same script shows spaces around the UID and GID... An
echo of LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the same system shows:

$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/sybase/sybase_12.5/OCS-12_5/lib:/apg/0800/mercator:/usr/sybase/syba
se_1200/OCS-12_0/lib:/var/opt/3mhis/pps/bin/OSF1:/u01/app/oracle/product
/9.0.1/lib:/var/opt/3mhis/pps/bin/OSF1

The at script was created with the following:

$ at now +2 minute << END
> ls /dev >>/tmp/ATTEST
> END
$

Any insight would be appreciated.
