Hi Kurt,

I cannot run nodetool ring anymore, since these test nodes are long gone.
However I've grepped the logs and this is what I've found:

Since we are allocating the tokens for seed nodes manually, it appears that
the first seed node in the new ring (172.31.128.41) gets the same first
token (-9223372036854775808) as the node in the old ring (172.31.128.31).
The same goes for the 3rd token of the new seed node (-8454757700450211158).

What is beyond me is why would that matter and why would token ownership
change at all, while these nodes are in the *different virtual DCs*?  To me
this sounds like a paticularly nasty bug...
