Description

The recent change to mapred-queues.xml that causes many mapreduce tests to break unless you delete conf/mapred-queues.xml out of your build tree is bad. We need to make sure that nothing in conf is used in the unit tests. One potential solution is to copy the templates into build/test/conf and use that instead.
