>Description:
sys/conf/newvers.sh uses the SNAPDATE variable to amend the
RELEASE tag of a kernel. For custom kernels SNAPDATE could
be used to add private tags (e.g. CTM delta number, or date)
to the kernel tag. Unfortunately newvers.sh zeroes out
SNAPDATE before applying it to RELEASE, rendering it useless.
