Well, I answered my own question. Realizing that the AE's syntax checker is not very clever, I solved the problem by adding this to the top of the job Post-Process:
! Fake declarations to fool AE syntax checker.
:IF 1 = 0
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_RUNID#,STRING, 100
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_STATUS#,STRING, 100
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_PARENT,STRING, 100
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_ALIAS#,STRING, 100
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_ACT_TIME#,STRING, 100
: DEFINE &REMOTE_TASK_END_TIME#,STRING, 100
:ENDIF
The job works fine.
