Thanks for the report. But I believe it is your personal setup. > But I use Gentoo linux (and uses scripts that for instance uses 'uname > -r').

The uname command just returns the kernel uname structure contents. If 'uname -r' says the above then that is what the kernel thinks the revision is. Since gentoo is a recompile distribution I imagine that the kernel was recompiled with that as the version string. Check the top level Makefile and you should find a kernel version string that matches. Look for the KERNELRELEASE variable in the Makefile.
