> this should throw if there is no open transaction.  It should never open one.
> In general the logic seems suspect.  Looks like the intent is to move all 
> existing files into a delta_x_x/ when a plain table is converted to MM table. 
>  This seems like something that needs to be done from under an Exclusive lock 
> to prevent concurrent Insert operations writing data under table/partition 
> root.  But this is too late to acquire locks which should be done from the 
> Driver.acquireLocks()  (or else have deadlock detector since acquiring them 
> here would bread all-or-nothing lock acquisition semantics currently required 
> w/o deadlock detector)
