That's true, but it seems to be easy to fix. I've emailed Zhuhan  
Jiang, the author of arrayjob but he is away until early February. It  
seems that if one replaces \array on lines 108, 148 and 164 of  
arrayjob.sty with another name (I use \Array), then arrayjob plays  
nicely with array/tabular.
