[Moabusers] Disabling showq's listing of blocked jobs

[Douglas Wightman]

While there's nothing wrong with the patch I believe that it will have
to remain specific to your site.  Almost all clusters use showq in
conjunction with "grep" to quickly narrow down on a job's state.  Your
patch makes it so that showq no longer prints out the status of each
job.  Because this breaks the default, expected behavior we are hesitant
to roll it into the main trunk.

What you are after has been partly implemented with "showq -s".

Thoughts?
