In that case, 32 was a estimative I made of the number of characters 
that the VERSION string would have based on its original value ("qemu 
usb-redir guest " QEMU_VERSION), so the new value wouldn't be much 
longer than the original one. I don't know about the usb-redir protocol 
so I don't know the exact maximum value that could go there.

I'm not sure. *Hans*, could you help us here? Is this VERSION string 
only used internally or does it show up somewhere on the guest VM?
