Coincidentally we noticed a over-the-wire serialization problem today.
With QVariant. But it's likely not an issue with above mentioned format
version 13. Rather with a backward compat mode. Do I see it correctly that
tests/ only cover 4.9 and 5.0 versions? Hmmm. I now realize that I can
answer this question myself given that the coverage results we just
posted...

We'll investigate what's going on and submit a patch if it's a problem in
QVariant or QDataStream.
Harri.
