Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-4611.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not a Problem

Tool is still broken, but for different reasons. I'll file a different jira for that.

> The documentation for the Tool interface will not work out of the box. It seems to have taken the Sort() implementation in examples, but has ripped out some important information.
> 1) args[1] and args[2] should probably be args[0] and args[1], as most MapReduce tasks don't take the first argument that examples.jar takes
> 2) int run() needs to actually return an int
> 3) JobConf.setInputPath() and JobConf.setOutputPath() are deprecated.
> 4) the call to ToolRunner.run() in main() should take "new MyApp()" instead of "Sort()" as an argument
> More generally, a working implementation of Tool in the docs would be handy.
