It's not so simple -- the "mtu-dynamic" string is passed across the
network which means the patch below will break backward compatibility
when one side of the connection is patched but the other side is not.
In fact, that's the reason why the options consistency protocol still
uses "mtu-dynamic" instead of "fragment". The solution that preserves
backward compatibility is to continue using "mtu-dynamic", but do a
search/replace of "mtu-dynamic" -> "fragment" on the warning string
before it is output.
Actually if that's the worst bug you guys can find, we're probably ready
to release 2.1 :)

Seems to me like it's just a typo when preparing the argument parsing.

Hi,
When makins some inconsistency mistake with "--fragment"
settings, I get an error message like:
WARNING: 'mtu-dynamic' is present in local config but missing
in remote config, local='mtu-dynamic'
I guess this message has to be updates, as "--fragment" is
meant to replace "--mtu-dynamic" AFAICS.
This is with 2.1_rc9.

Nice bug! --mtu-dynamic is an ancient option, it was dropped in version 1.5
about 5 years ago.
