Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-507:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: 507.patch

this patch fixes the bug in trunk.

unfortunately the risk/benefit of backporting this to the 0.4 branch is past my threshold of comfort.

> Turns out that the compaction code removes tombstones, and it runs whenever you have
> enough sstable fragments. As an optimization, if there is
> only one version of a row it will just copy it to the new sstable.
> This means it won't clean out tombstones, which is causing this problem.
