>             Project: Pig
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.11
>         Environment: Apache Pig version 0.11.0-cdh4.4.0
> Happens in both local execution environment (os x) and cluster environment (linux)

> Run this script in the local execution environment (affects cluster mode too):
> {noformat}
> %declare DATA_EXISTS /tmp/test_data_exists.tsv
> %declare DATA_MISSING /tmp/test_data_missing.tsv
> %declare DUMMY `bash -c '(for (( i=0; \$i < 10; i++ )); do echo \$i; done) > /tmp/test_data_exists.tsv; true'`
> exists = LOAD '$DATA_EXISTS' AS (a:long);
> missing = LOAD '$DATA_MISSING' AS (a:long);
> missing = FOREACH ( GROUP missing BY a ) GENERATE $0 AS a, COUNT_STAR($1);
> joined = JOIN exists BY a, missing BY a USING 'skewed';
> STORE joined INTO '/tmp/test_out.tsv';
> {noformat}
> Results in NullPointerException which halts entire pig execution, including unrelated jobs. Expected: only dependencies of the error'd LOAD statement should fail.

> Script above is as small as I can make it while still reproducing the issue. Removing the group-foreach causes the join to fail harmlessly (not stopping pig execution), as does using the default join. Did not occur on 0.10.1.
