Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-7405.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Hadoop is not focused on portability.
> libhadoop is all or nothing
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-7405
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7405
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: native
> Affects Versions: 0.20.203.0, 0.23.0
> Environment: Everything not Linux
> Reporter: Allen Wittenauer
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: regression
>
> As a result of a ton of new code in libhadoop being added in 0.20.203/0.22, a
> lot of features that used to work no longer do reliably. The most common
> problem is native compression, but other issues such as Mac OS X's group
> support broke as well. The native code checks need to be refactored such
> that libhadoop.so should report what it supports rather than having the
> Java-side assume that if it loads, it is all supported. This would allow us
> to stub routines until they've been vetted, removing the chances of such
> regressions appearing in the future.
