Jeff Hammerbacher updated HADOOP-4401:
--------------------------------------

    Component/s: contrib/hive

I forgot to mark this as part of contrib/hive, so it didn't make the move to 
Hive's new JIRA, and I created a duplicate issue: 
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-61. This issue can be deleted, I 
suppose, though it has accumulated some watchers and a voter.

> ORDER BY clause is ignored for SELECT statements

> The "ORDER BY" clause seems to be ignored (see the truncated output below). 
> I'd really like to use this in conjunction with the forthcoming LIMIT clause 
> to get TOP K functionality.
