Harsh J resolved HADOOP-7696.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

My bad. No such statement remains in trunk, so not a problem anymore.

For record, this came out of Ruby's discussion from 
http://search-hadoop.com/m/IK7mZamcXA1
                
> Add a note regarding the debug-log stack trace printing done in Configuration 
> class

>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: conf
>    Affects Versions: 0.24.0
>            Reporter: Harsh J
>            Priority: Trivial
>             Fix For: 0.24.0

>   this.loadDefaults = loadDefaults;
>   if (LOG.isDebugEnabled()) {
>     LOG.debug(StringUtils.stringifyException(new IOException("config()")));

> The LOG.debug line prints out an exceptionized-stacktrace, which seems to be 
> confusing to some users/hackers who're reading sources, or are running hadoop 
> in debug mode.
> Perhaps we can add a comment to explain why an exception is being logged (for 
> stack trace), or handle printing a point stacktrace in a more elegant way.
