Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-3448:
----------------------------------------

Its probably because the .class files dont even track where constants came 
from. Change a constant: do a clean build. 

Perhaps we should change the assert to say this. 

> Add some more hints of the problem when datanode and namenode don't match

> When there is a mismatch between name and data mode, and you are running with 
> -ea set, then Datanode.handshake() bails out with an assertion  "Data-node 
> and name-node layout versions must be the same.";
> However, this message doesnt actually say which version numbers are at fault. 
> A better error message would include the version information, so pointing the 
> finger of blame would be easier.
