I believe you've run into some odd versioning issues. I took a look at Apache Hadoop 0.20.2 release and I can't see this method.
It originated from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2366 contributed by Michele, which was put into the higher 0.21 version. 0.20.203 is not something that'd be considered entirely 0.21+ yet IMO. 204 and 205 have more backports in them, but this particular fix hasn't gone in yet. You can perhaps request a backport of this ticket for the next branch-0.20-security release (205/206) if you'd like to see it in that. It might need some patch changes though, and it'd improve your chances if you can post a backport too. Alternatively, you can look at that patch, and implement a custom simple utility if that's the only part of the larger fix you need. P.s. These methods were also improved recently in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7300 by Todd. On Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 11:16 PM, W.P.
