Nigel Daley commented on HADOOP-2325:
-------------------------------------
Looks like HADOOP-3246 (which was committed today) introduced a dependency on
Java 1.6. Doug, as committer, was that intended? Hudson builds will fail
until this is resolved. FWIW, my current Mac build machine is a G4 and thus
can't run Java 1.6.

> We should require Java 6 for release 0.17. Java 6 is now available for OS/X.
> Hadoop performs much better on Java 6. And, finally, there are features of
> Java 6 (like 'df') that would be nice to use.
