If your patch fails, set the issue status to 'Resume Progress', upload a
patch with fix and then set the status to 'Submit Patch' again.
Keep in mind, however, that the primary purpose of submitting patches is
to get a committer to review and commit them, not to run Hudson tests.
Folks should run 'ant clean test javadoc checkstyle' before submitting
patches. Tests should pass. Javadoc should report no errors.
Checkstyle's error count should not exceed that listed at:
http://lucene.zones.apache.org:8080/hudson/job/Hadoop-Nightly/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/trunk/build/test/checkstyle-errors.html
Hudson's tests should only double-check things, and not be used as a
primary tester, which would create too much noise on this list and in
Jira. Submitting patches that fail Hudson testing is frowned on,
(unless the failure is not actually due to the patch).
