-------------------------------------
Yeah, this patch just lets the exception bubble up. On this Mac, Oracle's Java
7 returns 1.
> AbstractHBaseTool swallows exceptions

> AbstractHBaseTool catches any uncaught exceptions, logs them, and explicitly
> exists. I believe the reason for this is to explicitly set a non-0 exit code

> on uncaught exceptions.
