Thanks Benjamin Reed,
Client protocol version is 0, it is not changed. Also there is no logic 
executed at the server side based on the client protocol version. Increasing 
the client protocol version and converting the errors at server may be the 
ideal and more precise solution but to handle it in a generic way can we 
convert the unknown error to KeeperException.SystemErrorException at client 
side? Do you foresee any problem in this solution? 

Thanks

did we bump the protocol version when we added the new errors? the server could 
do the conversion when it responds to older clients.
