I cp'ed hdfs-site.xml into HBASE_CONF_DIR and was able tun the tool.

The tool found a lot of abandoned regions:

like this one:

12/01/06 01:18:15 ERROR util.HBaseFsck: Bailed out due to:
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.HBaseFsck$RegionInfoLoadException: Unable to load 
region info for table TRIAL-DIMENSIONS-1324576713641!  It may be an invalid 
format or version file.  You may want to remove 
hdfs://us01-ciqps1-name01.carrieriq.com:9000/hbase/TRIAL-DIMENSIONS-1324576713641/ff6031e6472d10bac8517314179acb33
 region from hdfs and retry.
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.HBaseFsck.loadTableInfo(HBaseFsck.java:292)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.HBaseFsck.rebuildMeta(HBaseFsck.java:402)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.hbck.OfflineMetaRepair.main(OfflineMetaRepair.java:90)

There are hundreds of such regions, literally.

Region directories contain only .tmp subdir, like this one:

/hbase/M2M-INTEGRATION-MM_ERRORS-1324575562966/fd480b2c39f7d3333308bf1d9a304510/.tmp

No .regioninfo

These dirs are left-overs of a tables which have been deleted already and they 
confuse this tool.  If we delete table we should wipe out the whole directory, 
is not it?
Is there any scenario which can explain this?

Are you sure you have fs.default.name set properly to hdfs://yournn/
in your hbase-site.xml?

You shouldn't *have* to do this, but I bet it will fix the issue.
