Todd Lipcon commented on HADOOP-6378:
-------------------------------------
This is slightly tricky to resolve. In listStatus, we can catch
FileNotFoundException after calling getFileStatus. When that occurs, we have
two options: (a) we just don't include that file in the listStatus results, or
(b) we include that file with a FileStatus that indicates a 0 length file with
000 permissions. Unfortunately, Java <7 doesn't have any kind of lstat
equivalent.
