    Description

      org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider

      has the following 2 methods

      private HiveException hiveException(Exception e)

      { HiveException ex = new HiveException(e); ex.initCause(e); return ex; }

      private AuthorizationException authorizationException(Exception e)

      { AuthorizationException ex = new AuthorizationException(e); ex.initCause(e); return ex; }

      both, when called, will cause
      throw new IllegalStateException("Can't overwrite cause"); to be thrown and the original Exception is lost.

      See http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/6-b14/java/lang/Throwable.java#Throwable.initCause%28java.lang.Throwable%29
