I think it might make sense to keep around a repository of third-party
open source native code that we use in Hadoop.  Nothing fancy, just a
few .tar.gz files in a git repo that we manage.  This would avoid
incidents like this in the future and ensure that we will be able to
build old verisons of Hadoop.

best,
Colin
