Robert Chansler commented on HDFS-1073:
---------------------------------------

bq. Worked so far.
 How would you know? I just feel better having some check that the log is 
complete, especially in the new world where the log is a sequence of files. 
It's conceivable that not only could  the last log file be truncated, any 
number of log _files_ at the end of the log could be missing entirely. Of 
course, if the log files were being written to a more robust file system like 
HDFS, the need for integrity checks would be less.
