Ok, looks like the dummy patches are producing the same failures on {{branch-2.2}} as with the fix. The failing tests seem to pass locally (or fail in the same manner as without the patch), save for the {{TestSparkCliDriver}}. 

I'm +1. Just running a couple of double-checks before I check this in.

> Here's how to reproduce the problem:
> {code:sql}
> CREATE TABLE foobar ( foo STRING, bar STRING ) PARTITIONED BY ( dt STRING, region STRING ) STORED AS RCFILE LOCATION '/tmp/foobar';
> ALTER TABLE foobar ADD PARTITION ( dt='1', region='A' ) ;
> dfs -rm -R -skipTrash /tmp/foobar/dt=1;
> ALTER TABLE foobar DROP PARTITION ( dt='1' );
> {code}
> This causes a client-side error as follows:
> {code}
> 15/02/26 23:08:32 ERROR exec.DDLTask: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException: Unknown error. Please check logs.
> {code}
