Re: confused about serf OPTIONS request

Can you also take a look at correcting the property asked for, per
Julian's note? It may be that we'll have to ask for both properties,
and old servers provide the old property, and new servers provide old
and new.

Oh. Or wait. v2 does't even *want* that property. For all intents and
purposes, it is now deprecated entirely.

Nevermind :-P
