Description

In TestAccessController#verifyDenied there is code attempting to deal with UTEs with AccessDeniedException as a nested cause. Although it would seem the code intends to handle the exception reported by a recently failed test on the 0.98 Hadoop 1.1 Jenkins build here:

java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException: Unknown exception in doAs
Caused by: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: com.google.protobuf.ServiceException: Error calling method PingService.noop
Caused by: com.google.protobuf.ServiceException: Error calling method PingService.noop
Caused by: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.AccessDeniedExceptionorg.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.AccessDeniedException: Insufficient permissions (user=UserB, scope=testCoprocessorExec, family=, action=EXEC)
Caused by: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.ipc.RemoteWithExtrasException: org.apache.hadoop.hbase.security.AccessDeniedException: Insufficient permissions (user=UserB, scope=testCoprocessorExec, family=, action=EXEC)
...

it didn't work properly.
