Russell Jurney commented on PIG-2614:
-------------------------------------
reader.next() is where I've had the problem, and I'm not aware of any other
cases where this gets thrown.
It makes sense to skip the record and adjust counters. Assuming the
skipped/err'd/dropped record count will output prominently at the end?
I can add tests. When are we releasing an RC?

> AvroStorage dies when a single bad record exists, such as one with missing
> fields. This is very bad on 'big data,' where bad records are inevitable.
