Description

Hadoop and Pig both have CheckStyle integrated into their build. This is useful for catching
a variety of errors as well as for enforcing a specific coding style and maintaining good code hygiene.

We just need to snatch Hadoop's checkstyle.xml and integrate it into Hive's build.xml file.
