Doesn't this break when e.g. client supports 2.2 and server supports
1.4, where we'll return 2.2 instead of 1.4?  i.e. it seems to me this
should be

if (rep.majorVersion > stuff->majorVersion ||
    (rep.majorVersion == stuff->majorVersion &&
     rep.minorVersion > stuff->minorVersion)) {
     ...
}

Cheers,
Julien
