Please understand that this is an important bit of information for us
since
it means that there are no stable users that will keep an old and no
secure
version of the software... because it has been removed from the new
stable
release.
Well this matters to keeping gridengine or not. Logol has no security issue by itself, it only depends on a gridengine library.

I can well undestand that you are the upstream author and are confident
with the introduced changes. This doesn't mean that any change you may
introduce is bug-free. Any change requires some amount of time for
testing,
even if appears trivial.
It only removes one of the execution options.
