>Description:
4.0beta1 query-pr issues protocol commands which the 3.113.1 gnatsd doesn't 
understand, and then makes no attempt to fall back to one that does.
I believe that gnats.el has the same problem but I've only inspected the code, 
not tried it.
>How-To-Repeat:

$ query-pr -D -d gcc -H gcc.gnu.org --port 1529 -v guest -w guest 631
opening connection to gcc.gnu.org
query-pr: received 200 `sourceware.org GNATS server 3.113.1 ready.'
query-pr: writing `CHDB gcc'
query-pr: received 210 `Now accessing GNATS database '/sourceware/gnats/gcc-db''
query-pr: writing `USER guest guest'
query-pr: received 210 `User access level set to viewconf'
query-pr: writing `QFMT standard'
query-pr: received 500 `Unrecognized command.'
query-pr: cannot understand 500 `Unrecognized command.'
query-pr: writing `QUIT'
$ query-pr --version
query-pr 4.0-beta1
