So I got past the leaving problem once I found the removetoken force command.
Now I'm trying to move tokens and that will never complete either, but as I was
watching netstats for streaming to the moving node I noticed it seemed to stop
all of a sudden and list no more pending streams. At the same time on the
moving node this is in the system log:

Now I see no streams going on between any nodes, and the node is still listed
as "moving" when viewing the ring.

Subject: node stuck "leaving" on 1.0.5
I have a dead node I need to remove from the cluster so that I can rebalance
among the existing servers (can't replace it for a while).
I used nodetool removetoken and it's been stuck in the "leaving" state for over
a day now. I've tried a rolling restart, which kicks of some streaming for a
while under netstats but now even that lists nothing going on.
I'm stuck on what to do next to get this node to finally leave so I can move
the tokens around.
Only error I see in the system log:
