[Beowulf] Gridengine and bash + Modules

Greetings,

I'm using gridengine (6.2u4, open source ver.) and I would like to use
the Modules software. Modules uses a shell function that must be
exported (bash: "export -f func_name" in order to set environment
variables), but gridengine has a bug related with bash exported
functions[1].

Is anybody using gridengine, bash and modules? How to solve this?
Changing shell is not  an option ;)

This issue is also being discussed here[2].

Thanks,

Gil
