Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-2469:
-------------------------------------
It is true that it is unlikely but can we not have a new API that takes
Configuration ? That should handle all cases, no?
> WritableUtils.clone should take Configuration rather than JobConf

> I'd like to use WritableUtils.clone but I'm not in a mapred context so don't

> Configuration will do.
