Comment:

 I'm not sure I understand the purpose of:
 {{{
 -  if (!server_mode(options) || !advertised_server_mode())
 +  if (options->ClientOnly || !advertised_server_mode())
 }}}

 Also, this code doesn't actually change client behavior: it would make all
 servers cache, but it wouldn't do anything to let clients know that
 they're caching so they can use them.  Also IIUC it wouldn't make servers
 actually download directory information on the same schedule caches do, or
 make them keep it as long.
