That's correct. I know Greg is working to have 1.3.0 out before or around the same time as our 1.8.1 comes out. > Which of our bugs will still be bugs?

Unless I'm mistaken the only issue that required a Serf upgrade to resolve was the Windows single sign on functionality. The behavior change that fixes that requires Serf 1.3.0 because the Serf devs considered it a new feature and not just a fix. We decided not to raise the requirement to Serf 1.3.0 since that issue impacts a narrow group of users. Another point Serf 1.3.0 is switching to SCons and so I really don't want to require that version because it will almost certainly slow our updates reaching our users, since packagers will have to adjust their packaging to drive SCons rather than configure/make or serfmake.
