For the native libraries, you can use an existing Hadoop build and just put 
them on the path. For linking to Hadoop, Spark grabs it through Maven, but you 
can do "mvn install" locally on your version of Hadoop to install it to your 
local Maven cache, and then configure Spark to use that version. Spark never 
builds Hadoop itself, it just downloads it through Maven.
