Hi,
   I have both hive.merge.mapredfiles and hive.merge.mapredfiles set to true
via the shell tool and hive-default.xml configuration file.  However, it
appears somehow the job configuration is changed before the job is
submitted.  Is there another condition that can cause this to happen?

Thanks,
Sammy
