* Release: FreeBSD 2.0-BUILT-19950603 i386 * * 1. This provides very little information about the version - it might be * for plain 2.0 built late or for 2.2 built early. I agree. Is there some way to let cvs generate an $Id$-like string that has the checkout time, not the checkin time? Then we can put it in one of the header files and pull it into the kernel, and this will give us a reasonable approximation assuming the whole source is checked out at once (certainly true for sup from freefall or ctm).
