Subject: Configuration.java and bad constructor
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Disposition: inline

The constructor of Configuration is written like this:

Starting at line 90 of org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.java

  /** A new configuration. */
  public Configuration() {
    if (LOG.isDebugEnabled()) {
      LOG.debug(StringUtils.stringifyException(new IOException("config()")));
    }
    defaultResources.add("hadoop-default.xml");
    finalResources.add("hadoop-site.xml");
  }

Now, why would anyone create an IOException and log it like this?  I
was wondering why all these darned exceptions were in my logs.
