It doesn't support them.

What would be interesting though is to either hack on this engine to have the new C++ driver from datastax (http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/datastax-cpp-driver-for-cassandra-open-sourced) or to get the feature sponsored. See: http://s.petrunia.net/blog/?p=88 for more information. 

There is great potential to make this a really useful engine and to bridge the MariaDB/Cassandra worlds
