bugfix? for pig losing constructor arguments of UDFs

[Johannes Rußek <ru...@win-rar.com>]

Hello dear pig list,
with the help of our "java" guy we've been debugging pig today and
seemed to have found a workaround to pig losing contructor arguments
during execution. (very annoying if you wanted to use the DateExtractor
and specify date_formats in the pig script (DEFINE MyExtractor
as ...DateExtractor('yyyy-MM-dd')).
It seemed to have something to do with the magic pig uses to construct
the class for the correct argument types. This workaround seems to work
fine for us.
I've attached our patch to my original bug report:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1303
Thanks!
Johannes
