A few lines above in the same function we already cut off to 8-bit since
2015.

RB+. Please push.

We need eventually to extend the code to handle 32-bit versions but this
comment from 'more_recent()' helper in MIT krb5 does not make it optimistic:

    /*
     * If a small kvno was written at the same time or later than a large kvno,
     * the kvno probably wrapped at some boundary, so consider the small kvno
     * more recent.  Wraparound can happen due to pre-1.14 keytab file format
     * limitations (8-bit kvno storage), pre-1.14 kadmin protocol limitations
     * (8-bit kvno marshalling), or KDB limitations (16-bit kvno storage).
     */
