HIVE_OPTS in hiveserver (HIVE-2355)

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could give me some info on the status of HIVE-2355. This issue (although it's possibly somewhat poorly labelled) covers the fact that the contents auxlib directory aren't properly passed through as hive.aux.jars.path when running hiveserver.

I've just tested the same patch posted on HIVE-2355 (as it's necessary if you want to use a custom SerDe or StorageHandler with hiveserver), and it appears to work as intended, thereby allowing the use of extensions with hiveserver.

Is there anything holding this patch back to being committed, or has it just been forgotten (or something else)? If there are any additional issues surrounding getting this functionality into hiveserver, I'd be happy to assist.
