pack-capabilities.txt says

"Client will then send a space separated list of capabilities it wants
to be in effect. The client MUST NOT ask for capabilities the server

What was sent out of band is what the client can support, not what it
wants. So perhaps drop this patch and let the client decide exactly
what it wants.
