According to his docs, he says you need Cassandra >= 0.5.0.  I guess it is
possible that the included thrift files are targeted at 0.6, but I don't see
the "batch_mutate" method which is part of 0.6.  So I'm assuming that it
should work fine with 0.5.0.

I have now changed some of those entries in the configs and I have not seen
the error in a while.  So, it may have simply been that I was trying to do a
query which was too large for the configured buffer to handle.

For the time being, I would like to stick with 0.5 as it is the "stable"
release and we are running this in a production environment.
