> With JVM reuse, TaskRunner.setupWorkDir() lists the contents of workDir and
> does a fs.delete on each path listed. If the listed file is a symlink to
> directory, it will delete the contents of those linked directories. This
> would delete files from distributed cache and jars directory,if
> mapred.create.symlink is true.
> Changing ownership/permissions of symlinks through ENABLE_TASK_FOR_CLEANUP
> would change ownership/permissions of underlying files.
> This is observed by Karam while running streaming jobs with DistributedCache
> and jvm reuse.
