Damien Wyart was kind enough to point me to a patch that solved the compile problem of the nv driver and I now have a ready-to-boot-into 2.6.23-rc3 lying around. However due to other time constraints this will have to wait until tomorrow. Anyway, observing the currently running CPU bound jobs and comparing their progress (as documented by their logfiles) with the CPU % one of the jobs receives (as documented by top -d 60) it seems as if this is not so much a scheduling problem but an accounting issue. FWIW the jobs doing basically the same work are more or less head to head after 12+ hours of computation while according to top one of them is reported to receive roughly twice the CPU of the other. I will retry with 2.6.23-rc3 tomorrow and over the weekend to see whether the problem persists.
