Glad you've got it working properly. I've tried to make as "local" changes as possible, so changed only single value calculation. But it's possible your way is better and will be accepted by cassandra maintainer. Could you attach your patch to the ticket. I'd like for any fix to be applied to the trunk since currently I have to make my own patched build each time I upgrade because of the bug.
