Description

I am seeing cluster sometimes fails to go down hanging out waiting on close - it looks like it is waiting on hbase:meta that is the issue. I am running 0.98.0RC3 and hadoop-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT. Might be my setup. Filing this issue to keep an eye on this as I go.

It looks like we are not calling close the region that is holding us up. Log is full of this:
