Description

We're seeing this

FAILED: UnsupportedOperationException Unsupported entity type DUMMYPARTITION (state=42000,code=40000)

on a query that does something like this:

INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE foobar PARTITION (time=20140521, country)
SELECT ...

I'll attach a patch that I think fixes the issue but I don't fully understand the DUMMYPARTITION stuff from Hive so....
