This is actually a bug in MAPREDUCE-1504, but we will try to find a workaround. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1181
Given that release 0.5.0 is much wanted right now, I don't think we want to wait purely for 0.5.0 since the ultimate fix should come from Hadoop. We will definitely get HIVE-1181 for branch 0.5.

Is there any chance this fix will make it into the 0.5 release? -- Yours, Zheng
