I am facing this issue on 0.20.2, is there a workaround for this that I can
employ? I can create alias scripts to return expected results if that is an
option.

Hi Mohit,

If Windows is going to be your primary development platform, I suggest
you checkout the svn branch-1-win
(http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/branches/branch-1-win) and
build and use that instead. That branch currently targets making
Hadoop easier to use on Windows, and is a better approach to go
through than to try to hack things into place.

I'd prefer running on Linux myself, for we primarily develop Hadoop on
that platform.

All our environments are linux except developer environment that we
generally prefer to be done locally on developers laptop which can be
windows or mac. That's where I was trying to get it working for windows. I
think I am almost there except this bug that occurs right at the end during
cleanup.

may be you can just install vbox then use linux
