    @yhuai : Hive is doing the right thing of not throwing an exception when 
`IF EXISTS` keyword is used in `DROP TABLE` (irrespective of the table being 
there or not). If end user expects exception to be thrown, then one should not 
use the `IF EXISTS` in the command. Having `IF EXISTS` helps for writing 
pipelines which run daily and one wants "drop if exists or do nothing" 
semantics.
