>             Project: Hadoop Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mapred
>    Affects Versions: 0.16.1
>         Environment: all
>            Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
>            Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu

>             Fix For: 0.16.2

> Until 0.16.0 the value of the getOutputPath() method, if queried within a task, pointed to the part file assigned to the task. 
> For example: /user/foo/myoutput/part_00000
> In 0.16.1, now it returns an internal hadoop for the task output temporary location.
> For the above example: /user/foo/myoutput/_temporary/part_00000
> This change breaks applications that use the getOutputPath() to compute other directories.
> IMO, this has always being broken, Hadoop should not change the values of properties injected by the client, instead it should use private properties or internal helper methods.
