java.lang.RuntimeException: Unknown type BIGINT

Hi!

When using Hive 0.14 (trunk from April 2014), I can't run queries on tables
with BIGINT partition column. I get:


*FAILED: RuntimeException Unknown type BIGINT.*

It runs runs nicely in Hive 0.12.
It also runs nicely, if my table has a bigint column (un-capitalized, not
BIGINT).

The problem is that I have many tables (and partitions) with BIGINT
(capitalized). I would like to avoid altering them to change the type
from BIGINT
to bigint.

Is there any patch (or tick) available that handle case insensitivity?

Cheers!
Adam
