stack commented on HBASE-6678:
------------------------------

Or disable this test?  The MergeTool may have been of use one time way back but 
I'm sceptical its used at all these times?

Can a non-root user start a process on < 1024?
                
> TestMergeTool picks unlikely ZK port that could conflict

> In TestMergeTool, we pick an "unlikely" port for zookeeper to be on.  Perhaps 
> it would be better if this was a privileged port < 1024.
> {code}
>     // Make it so we try and connect to a zk that is not there (else we might
>     // find a zk ensemble put up by another concurrent test and this will
>     // mess up this test.  Choose unlikely port. Default test port is 21818.
>     // Default zk port is 2181.
>     this.conf.setInt(HConstants.ZOOKEEPER_CLIENT_PORT, 10001);
