NDFS accomplishes the above path finding by auto-prefixing any path not
beginning with / with a /user/$USER. I didn't think it was appropriate
for LocalFileSystem.java to be mucking around trying to automatically
adjust paths to what the user may have intended.
Grep-ing for /user, NDFSFileSystem has:
"/user/" + System.getProperty("user.name") + "/"
I would think this is not consistent with the idea that properties
and filenames working identically on all machines. Perhaps this
NDFSFileSystem line should use mapred.system.dir
