Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-10663:
----------------------------------------
Ah, I misunderstood this bug, then. I thought that {{Path}} instances that
included the drive spec failed to resolve to the local FS, and missed the
interaction with the default FS.
Closing this as WONTFIX makes sense.
> Path.getFileSystem should identify Windows drive (c:) like files and return
> the localFS

> While investigating the problem with MAPREDUCE-5912 I considered that the
> fact that asking a Windows specific Path to get its file system should not
> return the default FS, but the localFS. Specifically, I believe that
> Path.initialize should identify such names as belonging to the 'file://'
> scheme (when null) and so create appropriate URIs.
> I do not have the know-how to evaluate the bigger impact of such a change.
