There's no 'real' 3.4.7, but I did a quick google and saw there were
somethings calling themselves that, apparently.  And presumably they're
"new" enough to work.  qemu does not work with any 3.4.x, as the problem
that was reported was due to too old of a 3.4.x being on the system.

And I really wish qemu would get fixed / rewritten to work with some
sort of modern compiler, yeah :(
