bq. can we get a backport of it to 0.8.x, particularly 0.8.1?

No, this isn't really back-portable since it depends on CASSANDRA-2521 which was a total rewrite of the sstable deletion code, from being based on PhantomReferences triggered by GC, to manual reference counting.

bq. just tested a full gc on both 0.8.10 and 0.8.1 after waiting rpc_timeout seconds and the sstables that were marked as compacted through the drop command did clear.

Good, that's what we'd expect then.

> Tested in 0.8.10, reported in 0.8.1.
> Dropped keyspaces and column families have their sstables marked as Compacted, but will not disappear, even on restart. 
> Worked correctly in 1.0.8 where the sstables get deleted almost immediately following the column family drop.
