Description

Illegal \b element in hive-site.xml. 

    TXN_OVERWRITE_X_LOCK("hive.txn.xlock.iow", true,
        "Ensures commands with OVERWRITE (such as INSERT OVERWRITE) acquire Exclusive locks for\b" +
            "transactional tables.  This ensures that inserts (w/o overwrite) running concurrently\n" +
            "are not hidden by the INSERT OVERWRITE."),

Seems like just typo of \n.
