Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-8801:
----------------------------------------
looks OK, but the patch should fix something the original got wrong -it should
use {{Throwable.toString()}} not {{Throwable.getMessage()}}.
If you want to see why, look at the source for {{NullPointerException}} and
work out what message it prints...
> ExitUtil#terminate should capture the exception stack trace
