You can use the 0.6 branch instead, it's generally more stable than trunk.

This is why it was a pernicious little bug that got me.   Logs indicated it
worked, it just...didn't.

About RR - a read in Node 1 or Node 2 indicated a RR (see log entry

When you read at CL.ONE, RR is asynchronous -- it happens after your data is
returned.  CL.QUORUM would return the right data after performing the RR.

That is odd.  Are you sure repair had finished before the test?  In 0.6,
nodetool doesn't block until repair completes (but does in 0.7)

Right, node 3/4 was authoritative for CL.ONE since it had a copy of the
data.  After you read it, RR worked and fixed node 2.

I suspect RR worked, and you weren't waiting on AES long enough (it
essentially performs a major compaction, and then streams whatever needs to
be sent to the others, which can take a while depending on the volume of
data.)
