I'm not sure if dying is the appropriate response.
Proper documentation & perhaps a warning is
better.

I committed some changes in r53087 so that it would die with an error if
the option is disabled but someone tries to use it, but the change
hasn't been synced to Wikimedia sites yet.

To: mediawiki-api(a)lists.wikimedia.org
The 'cmnamespace' parameter to the 'categorymembers' query has been
disabled in miser mode, which has the effect of disabling it on WMF
wikis. The parameter is simply ignored, causing category lists to
include pages in all namespaces. The simplest workaround is to filter
category lists locally.
