Andrea Bolognani <abologna at redhat.com> [2017-12-14, 01:34PM +0100]:
> Make the parser both more strict, by not ignoring errors reported
> by virStrToLong_ui(), and more permissive, by not failing due to
> unrelated fields which just happen to have a know prefix and
> accepting any amount of whitespace before the numeric value.

You could do *str++ != ':' and save one line.
