Not having looked closely at this but thinking off the top of my head, is
the commfree boolean a column? Should we simply drop that column from the
database so that this behavior generates a more obvious error rather than
silently setting an unused variable? Other 3rd party programs may have the
same issue and leaving the unused column just makes it seem like it is still
supported.
