[drmaa-wg] Wait Question

For me DRMAA_ERRNO_INVALID_JOB seems to be the right answer, 
DRMAA_ERRNO_INVALID_ARGUMENT is not appropriate here. The 
'DRMAA_JOB_IDS_SESSION_ANY' argument of the call is valid in any case, 
but the empty set of job id's thereby identified is the problem. You 
could think of an error like DRMAA_ERRNO_INVALID_SESSION, but this may 
be overkill.

Regards,
Peter.
