Motivation
Backport of legendary bugfix #8049 to 2.3.
Doesn't work yet, I am not sure why.
Context
This is needed so I can do #5650 which backports a number of test suite improvements that make it more robust --- and also more likely to catch the bugs that this catches. That is in turn needed so we can do better cross-version daemon testing to ensure protocol backwards compatibility works.
