This looks good, except that it requires the HDFS patches to be in place to 
even compile. Although I think it's OK to not fix the bug in the case that 
we're on stock HDFS, I think we still need to be able to run, buggily.

Did we determine that all of the other solutions were flawed/too complicated?

    Check return value of rename (this is one of those stupid APIs that returns 
false instead of throwing)

<http://review.cloudera.org/r/396/#comment2062>

    rather than reassigning, just pass splitDir below?



trunk/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/master/ProcessServerShutdown.java
<http://review.cloudera.org/r/396/#comment2064>

    extract "-splitting" out to a constant?
    Or can we move some of this common code into HLog?



trunk/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/master/ProcessServerShutdown.java
<http://review.cloudera.org/r/396/#comment2063>

    maybe:
    assert !(logDirExists && splitDirExists) : "Both " + rsLogDir + " and " + 
rsSplitDir + " exist";
    so if the assertion failure happens it's more understandable
