Saw that patch. Was a bit curious about it. Didn't add it. I think that I discovered that the error return from get_best_mount was not being checked. This may have been the cause of that. I thought that was fixed. CHANGELOG says 4.1.2. I think the replicated server behaviour is working OK now. Fingers crossed.
