     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8043?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-8043.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm opting to build a different filter for in-house usage.  There are just too many problems with this one.
