--------------------------------------------------------------------

01: it looks like the old version built the index by reading straight from the 
data file.  The new way expects the CFS to be populated with sstables, which 
isn't always going to be the case (if you're recovering from a descriptor that 
points to a db that the CFS isn't going to load automatically).

EDIT: forgot to mention that SSTableWriterTest illustrates this.
