Agreed, for 9.1

Not sure how to handle that. My understanding is that we are replacing
the old Serializable mode with the new Serializable mode. The old way
works, but the new way doesn't. I don't think we should throw an error;
we just need to document that it works the old way on HS and the new way
everywhere else. Maybe that's inconsistent, but throwing errors isn't
useful in places where there didn't used to be any.
