Comment:

 Scary!  Let's give it a shot.  Merging this.   I'm putting this ticket
 back in "new" for now, until we can figure out which follow-up tickets to
 implement.  Suggestions:
   * Stop trying to download & cache v2 directory info (assuming that we
 still try)
   * Everybody stops serving v2 directory info, even caches
   * Forget about v2 directory info entirely
