I have a Hive table that has tab-separated fields. I am exporting it to MySQL. 
The export works fine (using --input-fields-terminated-by '\t') and I get 
correct results in MySQL. 

BUT, when I add the --direct option, the export fails. The source file (in Hive 
warehouse) is not parsed correctly and the tabs are ignored. The fields are not 
separated correctly when placed into MySQL.

Anyone else run into this?
