Martin, when adding "StaggerTimeStep=.TRUE.," for
MITgcm/verification/lab_sea/tr_run.salt_plume
I find that it makes the test results on a separate platform
extremely sensitive.

Specifically on forge I force:
> Y Y Y Y>16<16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  . pass  lab_sea/.salt_plume

and on a different linux box I get:
> Y Y Y Y> 6<12 12  9  8 13 14 10  7  8 10  7  6  8 10  7  6  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  . FAIL  lab_sea/.salt_plume

Is there something else that I need to be careful with, for example, the 
advection scheme used for seaice, when I turn "StaggerTimeStep=.TRUE.,"
