much smarter way that does not involve touch(1).

...clib from beggining...

if [ ! -r version ]; then
        echo 0 >version
fi

v=`cat version` u=${USER:-root} d=`pwd` h=${HOSTNAME:-`hostname`} t=`date`
i=`${MAKE:-make} -V KERN_IDENT`

...clip to end...

echo $((${v}+1)) >version


Seems changes like this are too hard to do...
