Possible bug in code?

Mailman3 experts --
I am trying to subscribe a user to a mailing list via the REST API. This works:
Posting to url http://localhost:8001/3.1/members POST payload: { "list_id": "<LISTID>", "subscriber": "d13b0bbb29844eb9af4b38dad7bb3707", } RESULT post of "http://localhost:8001/3.1/members" succeeds with code 202
This works does *not *work
Posting to url http://localhost:8001/3.1/members POST payload: { "list_id": "<LISTID>", "subscriber": "d13b0bbb29844eb9af4b38dad7bb3707", "pre_approved": true } RESULT post of "http://localhost:8001/3.1/members" fails with code 500
Any suggestions? As best I can tell, inclusion of *any* boolean types in my JSON causes the error code 500. FWIW I am generating the JSON using go language's JSON package.
I noticed in the API doc that the boolean values are represented as 'True' rather than 'true'. So I tried converting all instances of 'true' to 'True' in my encoded json. That produced an http 400 error, as it probably should.
Thanks!
