Sometime you may want to tweak your kernel config file between cvsups or cvs
updates.  Also I was wrong, in that the value does change as long as you
don't remove /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/${KERNCONF} directory between "make
buildkernel"s and you also use the same kernel config file.

The kernel version is stored in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/${KERNCONF}/version, it
is used to create /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/${KERNCONF}/vers.c.

David Wolfskill had advised me of the error I had made.
