Ivan Mitic commented on HADOOP-9527:
------------------------------------
Sorry folks, I thought that the todo (HADOOP-9819) tracks the failure that is
specific to Windows. I agree, no need to increase the scope of this Jira to fix
HADOOP-9819. I attached v12 version of the patch that reverts back this part of
the behavior from v10. Assuming that Jenkins comes back with +1 we can go ahead
and commit the latest patch (since we did all the work already). If not, I
agree, let's proceed with v10 and address the rest of the changes separately.
bq. As the test failure shows with your patch shows, this is kind of tricky to
get right with multiple JDK+OS combinations that need to be verified
Yep, I did the testing with both JDK7 and JDK6.

> The main cause of the failures appears to be that RawLocalFS.readLink() does
> not work on Windows. We need "winutils readlink" to fix the test.
