Good one Maraynn. Nice catch.
I have one suggestion.  Can we just say assignRoot instead of verifying the 
root location like how we do assignMeta.

{code}
this.services.getAssignmentManager().assignMeta();
{code}
similarly can we say
{code}
if (isCarryingRoot()) { // -ROOT-
        LOG.info("Server " + serverName +
            " was carrying ROOT. Trying to assign.");
        this.services.getAssignmentManager().
          regionOffline(HRegionInfo.ROOT_REGIONINFO);
        this.services.getAssignmentManager().assignRoot();
      }
{code}
Because we are sure that the root is down here.  What do you feel?
{Edit}
But am not sure if that verification step was added for some specific reasons.

> The ROOT RS has some network problem and its ZK node expires first, which 
> kicks off the ServerShutdownHandler. it calls verifyAndAssignRoot() to try to 
> re-assign ROOT. At that time, the RS is actually still working and passes the 
> verifyRootRegionLocation() check, so the ROOT region is skipped from 
> re-assignment.
>   private void verifyAndAssignRoot()
>   throws InterruptedException, IOException, KeeperException {
>     long timeout = this.server.getConfiguration().
>       getLong("hbase.catalog.verification.timeout", 1000);

> After a few moments, this RS encounters DFS write problem and decides to
