What documentation mentions the type 'available'? I know some (older)
implementations used to use 'available' as a type, and most
implementations just ignore an unknown type and treat it as
'available', which i think is a sensible thing to do. If you are a
purist, you could return an error if you encounter it, but I think
it's much more work to return errors than ignore it on the client
side.
Anyway, if you see the type somewhere, it should be reported as a bug,
and the software/documentation should be fixed.
cheers,
