My understanding is that the 1.2.x behavior here is :

1) initial_token set, num_tokens set = cassandra picks the num_tokens
value, ignores initial_token
2) initial_token unset, num_tokens unset = cassandra (until 2.0) picks
a single token via range bisection
3) initial_token unset, num_tokens set = cassandra uses num_tokens
number of vnodes

Are you saying this is not the behavior you saw?
