Good point.  I am calling FileSystem.get(URI uri, Configuration conf) with an 
URI like "hdfs://server:port/..." on a remote server, so I assume it is 
creating a DistributedFileSystem.  However I am not finding any documentation 
discussing its thread-safety (or lack thereof), perhaps you can point me to it?
