stack updated HBASE-543:
------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 0.19.0)
                   0.20.0

Moving out of 0.19.0.  ZK will fix this.  Its looking like it might happen before this issue gets fixed.

> A region's state exists in multiple maps in the RegionManager: unassignedRegions, pendingRegions, regionsToClose, closingRegions, regionsToDelete, etc.
> One of these race conditions was found in HBASE-534.
> For HBase-0.1.x, we should just patch the holes we find.
> The ultimate solution (which requires a lot of changes in HMaster) should be applied to HBase trunk.
> Proposed solution:
> Create a class that encapsulates a region's state and provide synchronized access to the class that validates state changes.
> There should be a single structure that holds regions in these transitional states and it should be a synchronized collection of some kind.
