client_stats already does that:
        c.client_is_mldonkey == 0 (not mldonkey)
        c.client_is_mldonkey == 1 (first part of signature received...)
        c.client_is_mldonkey == 2 (old mldonkey)
        c.client_is_mldonkey == 3 (new mldonkey)

So c.client_is_mldonkey >= 2 counts both old and new version.

Yes, no pun intended. It's just that the official client is recognized by
"negative" properties (it doesn't have any of the signs of other types of
clients)

Fixed, but wait for the next release ;)

The problem, visible from official client users, were warnings about broken
metatags requests. But they're many other open questions about the correct
behavior for an Overnet peer, IIRC mldonkey asked for help in the Overnet
forum and didn't get any answer from developers (only flames from some angry
users):
