      If a node is syncing from another node and has no common point in its oplog, it will go into RECOVERING state due to being 'too stale'. It will never leave recovering, even if there is another node it could sync from which does have a common point.

      I have attached a cleaned up and extended version of the toostale.js test that demonstrates this issue.
