Good question. The JDBC package relies on the hive serde2 package, which has
at least the following Hadoop dependencies:

org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration;
org.apache.hadoop.io.*;
org.apache.hadoop.util.StringUtils;

Someone more familiar with the serde2 package of the Hive codebase could
comment better as to why these deps exist.
