  Those are two ways to actually build the behaviour that the code currently 
pretends exists. That's cool, but the immediate fix is to not produce a fatal 
error.
  
  A fatal error signifies that the code is broken, raises our error levels, and 
may abort a deployment, or trigger Ops pages.
  
  In this case, however, it is known that this ability doesn't exist. Until 
this ability exists, the code either needs to be disabled (e.g. not deployed on 
Wikitech), or the code needs to handle this error and respond in some way. E.g. 
avoid queuing updates of this type or this size (possibly configurable), or run 
them differently, or to try it as today and then catch/suppress the failure - 
maybe logging a warning in its stead.
