Description

If a client has priorityBackup enabled and connects to a broker in a cluster with updateClusterClients="true" in its transport connector, the client ignores the priorityBackup flag it connects to any URI received from the broker, even if that URI doesn't have priority.

This is easy to reproduce adding a test case to the activemq-unit-tests/src/test/java/org/apache/activemq/transport/failover/FailoverPriorityTest.java test suite.
