4.8R and $FreeBSD$ version tag expansion

[David A. Gobeille]

I noticed that there were quite a few files with version ids of 
'$FreeBSD$' when I ran mergemaster after an install of 4.8R.  This isn't 
right is it?  What are the consequences of installing over your files 
with unexpanded version ids?  I would like to build a release(make 
release) and want to know if I can continue or if this is going to be a 
problem for future upgrades/mergemaster runs.

I compiled and installed from source that was supped around 9:30am this 
morning.  I keep a local repository and checkout the source from there.

Here are the steps I used for the upgrade from 4.7 STABLE Nov 12, 2002:
I updated the repository like so...
cd /home/ncvs
cvsup -L2 -g supfile

supfile:
--------------------------------------------
# Defaults that apply to all the collections
*default host=cvsup10.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/home/ncvs
*default prefix=/home/ncvs
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress

src-all
ports-all
doc-all
--------------------------------------------

/usr/src and /usr/obj were rm -rf'ed.

Then checked out the source...
cd /usr
cvs co -P -rRELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE src

Build and install...
cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make KERNCONF=SERVER kernel
reboot (single user)
mounted file systems
make installworld
mergemaster (version id problem here)
reboot

Thanks for any assistance.
