> MAPREDUCE-898 moved distributed cache setters and getters into Job and 
> JobContext.  Since the API is new, I'd like to propose that those getters 
> never return null, but instead always return an array, even if it's empty.
> If people don't like this change, I can instead merely update the javadoc to 
> reflect the fact that null may be returned.
