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.

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.
