Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-2472:
----------------------------------------

Hm, this seems to take care of extra intrnal whitespace, but I think we need a 
trim() in there too for trailing/leading whitespace

> Extra whitespace in mapred.child.java.opts breaks JVM initialization

> When creating taskjvm.sh, we split mapred.child.java.opts on " " and then 
> create a quoted argument for each of those results. So, if you have an extra 
> space anywhere in this configuration, you get an argument '' in the child 
> command line, which the JVM interprets as an empty class name. This results 
> in a ClassNotFoundException and the task cannot run.
