-----------------------------------------
I will take a look tomorrow. This is causing annoying and unobvious problems on
some setups.

> HIVE-2573 introduced static reload functions call.
> It has a few problems:
> 1) When metastore client is initialized using an externally supplied config
> (i.e. Hive.get(HiveConf)), it still gets called during static init using the
> main service config. In my case, even though I have uris in the supplied
> config to connect to remote MS (which eventually happens), the static call
> creates objectstore, which is undesirable.
> 2) It breaks compat - old metastores do not support this call so new clients
> will fail, and there's no workaround like not using a new feature because the
> static call is always made
