The replies are actually generated from the QEMU 5.2.0 binary built
exclusively
from upstream. This is also true for the other s390 replies generated for
the earlier versions of QEMU.
So how are you actually building the binary? Because if you just
clone the upstream repository and run the usual ./configure && make
inside it, the version number will not look like that... The presence
of .fc32 specifically seems to indicate a .spec file is involved in
some capacity.
