Not -that- often but I did waste a considerable amount of
time in each case when reported that "2.6.N" had a bug that in fact was
due to somebody building some random git checkout. But yeah, I suppose I
should from now and always ask precisely what kernel was used and/or
enable CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO.
