Description

There's a bug in how MultiOutputFormat deals with DistributedCache, in that it hardcodes the parameter name to merge for distributed cache entries in the jobconf. This parameter name has changed with recent builds of 2.x, thus causing a test failure. These parameters need to be properly shimmed out.
