Lack of good documentation, no tests and possibly undefined behaviour in a few places. The code also doesn't look any cleaner than HDFS and uses some weird mix of C (*printf, error codes) and C++ (vectors, smart pointers, RAII etc).

Haven't looked at any code, but what you describe is very common usage.
