I couldn't say if that's *exactly* the case, but it's pretty close. I 
don't recall ever removing /var/lib/glusterd/* or any of its contents, 
but the operating system isn't exactly the way it was when I first tried 
to add this node to the cluster.

What should I do to *fix* the problem though, so I can add this node to 
the cluster? This bug report doesn't appear to provide a solution. I've 
tried removing the node from the cluster, and that failed too. Things 
seem to be in a very screwey state right now.
