Yeah, internally it's creating an "unconfirmed client" on SETCLIENTID
(or EXCHANGE_ID) and then a new "confirmed client" on
SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM (or CREATE_SESSION).
I'm not sure why the ordering's a little different between the 4.0/4.1+
cases.
The difference on unmount is because 4.1+ clients immediately send a
DESTROY_CLIENTID on unmount, but that op was new to 4.1.
(Note of course this isn't precisely mount/unmount, as the same client
can be used for multiple filesystems.)
Honestly, I think this is exposing an implementation detail and it's
dumb. I'll look into fixing it.
(I don't know if that change itself would cause additional difficulty.)
