Description

I see that hadoop-core still depends on Jackson 1.0.1 -but that project is now up to 1.8.2 in releases. Upgrading will make it easier for other Jackson-using apps that are more up to date to keep their classpath consistent.

The patch would be updating the ivy file to pull in the later version; no test
