   Switching to a manually "shaded" version might even make it easier to keep 
our Guava version up to date, if we do the copy with a script that is easy to 
run against new Guava sources. The script could potentially copy just the Guava 
files we know we need and do minimal modifications to them in order to get them 
to be in different packages.
   
   I think it's probably a good idea. We have so many problems caused by the 
combination of the Guava team's historical attitude towards backwards 
compatibility and the reluctance of the Hadoop community to upgrade to a 
non-ancient version of Guava. Recently the Guava team has had a more pragmatic 
attitude towards backwards compatibility (they have promised to support 
non-Beta APIs indefinitely). But sadly, this doesn't help us much, given that 
we still need to be compatible with versions from the older era.
