Hadoop uses invalid names for environment variables
---------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-6388
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6388
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.20.1
            Reporter: Simone Leo


Variable names cannot contain dots and this is enforced starting from bash 4.0, 
see [http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-b...@gnu.org/msg05726.html].

An example of Hadoop functionality that breaks after upgrading to bash 4.0 is 
running Pipes applications: the "hadoop.pipes.command.port" var is not passed 
and applications crash with "Hadoop Pipes Exception: Illegal text protocol 
command".
