I haven't seen any issues in 1.5 with Hadoop 1 and 2 compatibility, so
I'm not sure where your feelings of risk are coming from.
Also, I've already said that this is very important to me. I do not view
this as a marginal benefit. I view this as half-porting Hadoop2 support
to 1.4.

The reflection stuff to obviate having an special build went into 1.5 in a

unnecessary risk to the stability of the 1.4 line for marginal benefit.
