> Certain log4j features are not configurable via the log4j.properties file, not to mention the log4j.properties file is messy.  For this reason, we should transition to a XML file to configure log4j.  The .properties vs. .xml argument has only come up in HADOOP-211, where the XML configuration was vetoed for Tomcat integration issues.
