Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:1 arma]:
 > Should we take the opportunity to put a much lower bound on the range of
 version subcomponents? Like, even if we start putting out Tor
 0.3.0.20170215, that's still way lower than INT32_MAX. :)

 `20170215 > 2^25`, so I can't see any smaller limit, at least on a byte
 boundary.

 > (I am also fine with "maybe but how will we pick the lower bound, let's
 just stick with INT32_MAX and have the discipline not to pick stupid
 version numbers.)
