I've got something that fixes up the version by adding -BK and then 8
hex characters from the md5 hash of the top of tree changeset key.

I was starting to work on stuffing that same value into a /proc file so
that you can figure out what the tree looked like, but at the moment,
you at least get a semi-random string appended to the version.

I resent the patch yesterday, but I'll put it here, too:

I think that was my patch - Sam was going to look at it, but I suspect
it got lost in more interesting things. :)

(I sent a better described version to Andrew yesterday, if you want to
grab that description and use it instead.)
