Comment:

 That fix won't work right, I think: I think only changes the client side
 behavior, not the server-side behavior, and the server-side behavior will
 remain broken.

 (I'd love to be proven wrong about that, btw: one way to do that is try
 this on a private network where the client is unpatched and the servers
 have the patch.  If you do, I think you'll see the client fail to connect
 to the servers.  But if the client can successfully connect, then we may
 have the start of an approach.)
