I have my name back, thanks:
DragonFly 1.1-CURRENT #0
But the counter is still stuck on #0, and always has been.  I've never
understood where that number is generated.  If you can point me to the
code maybe I can figure out why it is always zero.


it increments each kernel you compile without updating the source.
each new kernel "version" resets it to 0
I think I understand it now:  doing a full buildkernel deletes the
/usr/obj/ tree where 'version' is stored and so it is reset to 0.
OTOH, the quickkernel target does not run newvers.sh, so the
counter is not incremented.  Does this sound correct?
