Ticket 8957

Hello,
As stated in the documentation
"If only one of a set of possible options should be used for all allocated nodes, then use the OR operator and enclose the options within square brackets"
So the allocated node must have and of the constraints inside the square brackets
However I see a different behaviour when using this
some time I get allocated a node which doesn't have any of the requested constraints.

An example:
[mazatyae@cn509-02-l ~]$ srun -t 1 --pty -n 40 -N 1  --constraint="[cpu_intel_e5_2680_v2|cpu_intel_e5_2670_v2]" bash -l
srun: job 10446359 queued and waiting for resources

This doesn't happen to me when I use the normal "or" without the square brackets.
