Hey JT, I believe this issue should be fixed by CASSANDRA-1571... if you're able to test that patch, it would be very helpful.

Namely I seem to get errors like this start to happen, after I 'delete' a row in a CF that has a couple of secondary indices on it and then at some point later try to query for any rows from that CF. Usually I don;t get the Null pointer exception below, instead what often happens is that the SliceQueryFilter.java line before it, repeats itself forever bever stopping until I kill the server On this occasion I got a null pointer exception as well. This is on trunk as of tonight (but I was getting it over the weekend as well).
