Yes, there is. Vdsm would like to declare its support of clusterLevel 3.6 only when it actually does. This is not yet the case, as we are not yet in 3.6 feature freeze (heck, we're not yet in feature definition). To test cluster level 3.6 on the master branch, someone has to "lie". It may be Vdsm (by claiming that it supports 3.6 while it does not) or Engine (by allowing vdsm 4.17 into cluster 3.6, even though it does not). I prefer the latter, as the Engine-side hack is eaiser to undo on a distributed system. If today's Vdsm claims that it already support 3.6, future Engines would add it to their cluster, only to find that random APIs fails. If the hack is Engine-side, it would be gone when 3.6 reaches feature freeze.
