I usually have hadoop configured on the system even when using pig in local
mode and don't remember running pig without hadoop.

It could be working on versions pig-13 or prior since it used to ship all
hadoop jars along with the release, but with pig-14 hadoop jars are no
longer shipped (believe this is to have a lighter packaging).

Regards,
Praveen
