>    Affects Versions: 0.8.0

> org.apache.pig.builtin.CONCAT (which acts on DataByteArray's internally) and 
> org.apache.pig.builtin.StringConcat (which acts on Strings internally), both 
> act on the first two fields of a tuple.  This results in ugly nested CONCAT 
> calls like:
> CONCAT(CONCAT(A, ' '), B)
> The more desirable form is:
> CONCAT(A, ' ', B)
> This change will be backwards compatible, provided that no one was relying on 
> the fact that CONCAT ignores fields after the first two in a tuple.  This 
> seems a reasonable assumption to make, or at least a small break in 
> compatibility for a sizable improvement.
