that doesn't sound compelling to me, as, afair, the serial numbers are reset on every release. Eg. I can see this on one machine: $ what /bsd.old /bsd.old OpenBSD 4.3 (GENERIC) #698: Wed Mar 12 11:07:05 MDT 2008 Now, with -current, serial numbers for i386 are in the range of 4xx, which is much lower than 698. > You don't say _why_ it would matter to you, so I can't answer > _whether_ it would matter to you.

I am interested in how these things work internally in your project, and I also wondered whether I'd done something wrong (eg. inadvertantly fetched stale code), as, at first, I assumed that all these builds should occur in sync. Now, when I was reporting problems, the large difference in serial number struck me as odd, and curiosity set in. Kind regards, --Toni++
