okay. so SEQUENCE_TABLE does indeed exist.  that's the first thing to get
out of the way then. hmm.

I suspect these other tables are just artifacts from the differences in the
hive versions.

yeah, i'm not sure where to go from here and I couldn't find much via
googling either.

would it be possible to install hive v0.12? I can at least vouch for that
version. (i'm using postgres v9.1 however.)

Otherwise, we'll have to wait for someone else to chase this bugger down -
which may not be a bad thing. :)
