-----------------------------------
Ah, you're right-- that's a good point. I'm nominally on vacation today, but
I'll take some time to peruse this later this afternoon.
> Avoid exposing incompatible Hadoop classes in Crunch API

> Between Hadoop 1 and 2, org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Counter changed from a
> class to an interface. Therefore, exposing Counter in Crunch's API means that
> Crunch programs may need to be recompiled when moving from a Hadoop 1 to a
> Hadoop 2 cluster. It would be nice to avoid the need to recompile.
> Note that Crunch itself has two artifacts - one for each major version of
> Hadoop - and the change proposed here would not alter that, it would just
> mean that the same Crunch program binary could be used with either Crunch
> artifact.
