I'd be first worried about how you got 2 regions with the same start key :)
A major compaction won't do anything go in your case. I don't remember if hbck fixes that sort of situation, but worst case you can force close the region using the shell, then once it's really unassigned you can delete the .META. row (keep in mind its encoded name) and then in the filesystem move the contents from that region's folder to the other one and finally delete that folder.
