That looks fishy. You create a cache, and then throw it away and create another
one and return that. I don't think that's what you intended, is it?

It would also be cleaner I think if you created another helper, eg.
cache_is_unified_d() to do the property lookup.

And also I don't think you need to do the second property lookup, especially if
all you're going to do is print a warning.

cheers
