Hi all,

I'm running into a problem that looks like a bug to me, and haven't been able 
to find it in Jira.  I'm running trunk as of about 3 weeks ago, so 0.9ish, 
using Hive tables backed by HBase (0.90.4). My table has these columns:

id, lat, long, precision

where id is the HBase rowkey.  I've tested different versions of this example 
and determined that the type of these columns doesn't matter.  If my row looks 
like this:

123, 50.0, 50.0, null

and I query select * it looks just like above.  If I select id, lat, precision 
I get 123, 50.0, null, as expected.  But if I query

SELECT id, precision

I get nothing back - no id, no nulls, no nothing.  That seems suspect.  Those 
examples are from the command line, but when I package these queries up in an 
Oozie workflow the same behaviour appears, though it's worse in that case 
because then my mapper throws NPE because it gets no result back from Hive.

Anyone else seen this behaviour?

Thanks,
Oliver
