http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-gridengine-devel/2014-October/000737.html says "It should be removed in its current state, particularly as the configuration is totally insecure and doesn't ship the components to secure it" and the package has been RFH for nearly two years. Given that and the discussion in #776131, I'm not sure keeping the package in its current state is the best idea.
