Running CAM4 FHIST in CESM2.1

Hello,

I have run FHIST experiments with CESM2/CAM6 that I would like to repeat with CAM4. If I set up a new case and change nothing expect CAM_CONFIG_OPTS="-phys cam4", I get the following error:

As far as I can tell, the chem_surfvals_nl in atm_in looks okay (identical to a CAM6 FHIST).

I have also tried creating a new case with an FHIST_CAM40... compset, but build-namelist fails: "invalid value of use_case (1850-2005_cam4) specified in commandline"

Questions:
What is the proper way to repeat a CAM6 FHIST run with CAM4? If it is just changing the CAM_CONFIG_OPTS, how do I fix the chem_surfvals_readnl error?

Thank you.
