------------------------------------------
Indeed it's calling a different version of GenericData from 1.7.4 Gotta fix
whatever is going on on my side before I complain again.
> AvroAsTextInput format creates invalid JSON for NaN values

> The AvroAsTextInput format generates a record containing
> [omitted] , "someName": NaN}
> A json parser chokes on that and it is not legal JSON AFAIK. In related
> issues AVRO-972 and AVRO-1290 it is resolved, for lack of a better option, to
> map the value NaN to the string "NaN", which needs to be quoted in JSON. Our
> parser can handle that with no modifications, Java will parse such a string
> to the correct value using standard libraries.
