Github user pwendell commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/96#issuecomment-37091891 To be clear, I merged it into master so it will be in Spark 1.0.0. I just didn't back port it into the 0.9 branch so it won't be in Spark 0.9.1. Usually we backport things that are fairly high priority fixes, since any time there is some risk that a "fix" actually regresses behavior in some way. This one is a good fix but I'm not sure it's urgent enough - but we'll see if people running 0.9.X request this fix and if so we can backport it.
