In our observation hive, that went through two CCD crashes, the old queen  
was still there at the end, laying as fast as she could.
 
That seems consistent with what we've always seen, original queen still  
laying, often more brood than the shrinking adult bee population can cover and 
 feed.
 
Its not a queen problem, per se.  At least, not in terms of queen loss  or 
lack of laying.
