Well. If you *know* which of the old clients have been upgraded to AES,
you should be able to put "cipher AES..." into a ccd/ file for that client
(I haven't tested it with 2.4.0-final - it worked for a hacked-together
variant I did that later become the much more cleaned-up official version of
poor man's NCP by Steffan). Technically it should work...

Try ccd/ :-) - if that doesn't work, the plan will have to be "upgrade
the clients to something that sends OCC info, and bug the router vendor
in question not to use --enable-small and/or upgrade to 2.4.0"...
