> MahoutDriver throws NPE if driver.classes.props is not on the classpath

> Running MahoutDriver from an IDE run configuration with a program name such
> as kmeans and help as arguments, will result in an NPE because it won't be
> able to find the driver.classes.props file.
> By changing the catch block so it catches Exception instead of IOException,
> MahoutDriver will use the driver.classes.default.props file so it can still
> be run with or without the driver.classes.props. This is useful if one wants
> to call the MahoutDriver from custom code outside mahout instead of using the
> mahout script. However, if one wishes to run MahoutDriver from outside
> mahout, the mahout-core, -math, -utils and example jars still need to be on
> the classpath or else ClassNotFoundExceptions will be thrown when it tries to
> add the classes for all the programs.
