It depends on what you are going to do with Globus.  In the Open
Science Grid the globus services run only on the manager nodes and
the client machines only have client software so they can access
globus-url-copy and such.  In some other installations, where
the workers can't access the grid, there are no globus installation
necessary at all.

I believe that Condor comes with enough internal GSI stuff to
do its own GSI functions and is not dependent on the globus
toolkit for that but I could be wrong.
