Yes. SL6 ARGUS with the old version, 1.87-1, works. This is confirmed by
Matt Diodge as well as us at Liverpool.
We therefore know that a site that sticks with 1.87-1 CAs on ARGUS (and
other VOMS clients) is sure to work for the time being, i.e. tomorrow...
And we also know for sure that a site that updates ARGUS (and other VOMS
clients) to 1.88-1 today is sure to Fail immediately.

Yes. 1.87-1 cl;inets are safe. So now we just still need confirmation
that an SL6 ARGUS that is updated to 1.88-1 in (say) four days will work
with the (hopefully) updated servers (well enough to fill our clusters
at least.)
Cheers,
