> The reason why TestMasterFailover fails is that when it does the master
> failover, the new master doesn't wait long enough for all region servers to
> checkin so it goes ahead and split logs... which doesn't work because of the
> way lease timeouts work:

> I think that we should always check in ZK the number of live region servers
> before waiting for them to check in, this way we know how many we should
> expect during failover. There's also a case where we still want to timeout,
> since RS can die during that time, but we should wait a bit longer.
