As I known, no/not many person declare that they depend on libhdfs3. In the
past, they just make a copy into their repo if need it (not a good things, but
understandable, maybe making all hawq tests passed is a big burden for them).
So I think breaking changes are not a big deal in libhdfs3, if guys found
something broken, hope them to back to HAWQ community.---
