Quotes in environment HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS confuse parsing if this env is concatenated with something else

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-1286
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1286
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: task
    Affects Versions: 0.20.2
         Environment: Linux F12; streaming
            Reporter: Yuri Pradkin
            Assignee: Yuri Pradkin


I use streaming and in the perl-reducer I write to hdfs using  a pipe to hdfs -put - ....    It turns out that because TaskRunner sets the environment HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS in double quotes, when hdfs shell script concatenates these with something else, the command fails: .e.g java -Dblah=x -Dfoo=y "-Dhadoop.tasklog.taskid=z -Dhadoop.tasklog.totalLogFileSize=s"...

Since I don't see any reason to have these double quotes in the original code; I propose they're removed.
