> {{RPC.stopProxy}} includes the following lines in case of error:
> {code}
> LOG.error("Could not get invocation handler " + invocationHandler +
>           " for proxy " + proxy + ", or invocation handler is not closeable.");
> {code}
> Trouble is, the {{proxy}} object is usually backed by {{WritableRpcEngine}}, which will fail in the event {{toString}} is called on one of its proxy objects. See HADOOP-7694 for more details on that issue. Until that's addressed, we might as well change the log message in {{RPC.stopProxy}} to not call {{toString()}} on {{proxy}}.
