I've never known it to matter, but clearly I haven't explored the full
address space and don't have access to the code used in the driver.  QEMU
will truncate strings to 12 chars with a warning if it's too long.  The
default string is 12 chars.  I regularly use 'KeenlyKVM' and have never
seen a spurious code43.
