-R option fails with pserver

I have already metioned this to the Debian package maintainer [1] but got
no reply so I sent it here also.

The problem is that if you use the -R option for a pserver (which is
useful if you want to provide high performance read-only access) it
inserts a warning in the protocol stream.

I have created two possible solutions to this problem.

The first (patch-really_quiet_pserver_try2) sets the really_quiet flag for
all pserver operations (but not quiet so normal output is still printed).
This will probably also disable most other protocol mangling messages.

The second (patch-no_readonly_warning_for_pserver) disables only this
specific warning when the pserver command is used.

Both patches were to Debian version 1:1.12.9-3 but seem to apply to 1.12.9
proper.

I'm not subscribed to this list though so please keep me in CC.

ps. I couldn't find any mailinglist archives for this list, the archive
here [2] isn't updated
