This works as expected. 0.9.8 still had a small buffer for RPC messages.
It's since 0.9.13 release that we've switched to dynamically allocated
buffer and hence could size up the limit for incoming data. Update the
client and problem will just go away.

Actually that is not working as expected. The old client should *always*
be able to talk to a new server. If the new server is unconditionally
sending back data that is too large for the client, this is a bug.

True, however I don't see how to fix it for past versions,
specifically we can't go back to the small buffers again.
For a proper solution client and server would need to advertise their
respective maximum buffer sizes (or know it by the version number)
and restrict themselves to using the lower number.
