Comment(by nickm):
Seems harmless at first glance; if version is greater than the width of
protocols, then we'll just ignore the value. But AFAIK, we should also
never actually use the value if it describes a protocol we can't speak, so
our failure to record it shouldn't matter.
So the desired behavior (ignore protocols we can't speak) would seem
identical to the current behavior.
This deserves a comment, though. And somebody should doublecheck my
logic.
