I think this can be done by swapping SCRIPTDIR and LSCRIPTDIR in
tigercron :

            $script
          else

At this time, LSCRIPTDIR is only defined in $BASEDIR/systems/Linux/2/config,
and points to $BASEDIR/systems/$OS/$REL. $BASEDIR/config is in charge to
call the right config (systems/Linux/2/config in this case) for the current
architecture. The definition of LSCRIPTDIR in architecture specific config
files could be generalized.
