-----------------------------------------

Figured I'd mention that Tomcat has some support for calling into APR:

Javadoc:

> It would be useful to implement a JNI-based runtime for Hadoop to get access 
> to the native OS runtime. This would allow us to stop relying on exec'ing 
> bash to get access to information such as user-groups, process limits etc. 
> and for features such as chown/chgrp (org.apache.hadoop.util.Shell).
