Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-4538:
---------------------------------------

bq. On March 5, you commented that you would check this JIRA out "as soon as 
you could" in the HDFS-347 merge vote email thread.
I apologize. I have been busy with things and summit etc. I have not had time 
to spend on this issue.

I am not trying to block the merge. I am posting a comment to ask you why 
certain things have been done in certain way. Please mark this jira as 
incompatible. I would like turn legacy block reader to true in a subsequent 
patch.

> on Windows, whereas the secure solution has not yet been implemented there.  
> As described in the mailing list discussion, let's enable this.
