stable/9 does include rXXXXXX version in uname -a:

$ uname -a
FreeBSD icarus.home.lan 9.1-STABLE FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE #0 r249715: Sun Apr 21 22:34:37 PDT 2013     root at icarus.home.lan:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/X7SBA_RELENG_9_amd64  amd64

I'm not sure where this comes from during buildkernel, however.  "svn
info" is the way I know of to get that value, but I don't know where in
the build framework it obtains this number.

The reason I mention that: possibly the build framework uses the "svn"
command to get the information, and since "svnup" is not "svn", it can't
get it, thus there's nothing to print.
