Thanks guys.
It seems
src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
is only triggered by a recompilation of the kernel,
at least the lines
i=`${MAKE:-make} -V KERN_IDENT`
and
char kern_ident[] = "${i}";
make me believe that.
I also try to cvsup my src and recompile the kernel and world
in one go instead of only patching and recompiling the subsystem,
since that bumps the patchlevel and keeps all synchronised.
That's not possible in all scenarios, of course.
Again thanks for the answers, but how did you find that out?
Kind regards,
lars.
