After upgrading HBase from 0.20.0 to 0.20.2 I am getting following error
message:

This is happening for the following line in my code:

this.table = new HTable(new HBaseConfiguration(), tableName);

This used to work flawlessly before, so seems like something changed in
HBaseConfiguration, may be?  I am looking into this, but any pointers would
be greatly appreciated.

We should figure what we broke.  Try fix for 0.20.3.  In future, as part of 
release, try accessing cluster with an older client to ensure we've not done 
something that would frustrate rolling upgrade.
