Hello,

the label on the CD still says that it is 6.3-pre2. I was thinking about 
the idea to get the VERSION variable from SVN metadata. Something like:

-export VERSION ?= $(CD_ARCH)-6.3-pre2
+export VERSION ?= $(CD_ARCH)-6.3-r`sed -n 4p .svn/entries`

The "sed" program is used instead of "svn" because there is no "svn" 
binary at the end of Chapter 5. Any objections or improvements? E.g., 
detect the case whan the CD is being built from a modified working copy, 
and append "-custom" in this case?
