This seems like a bug to me. If it is a micro version number, why is it
delimited with comma instead of dot? If it is not a micro version
number, can we threat it like it is?
BTW: what distro is this so I can chase this down to see if it's a bug
or not?

Upstream had a bug where they released with a comma instead of a
period. The unfortunate thing is that the comma is in the wild. They
accepted a patch afterwards to change it back to a period.
That being said, I believe this worked in libvirt master since I
actually tried it both ways when I contacted upstream QEMU about this
several months back. Its possible though that commits since I've tried
it have broken it.
