I don't see the big issue with this: With the naming now you cannot make more than one custom version of the 1.6 release. As it is now you cannot make several versions of e.g. gnumach-1.6+git20160311-1-486 either until a new 1.6+git<date> version is out. And the created package names are awful. It would be much better to create custom versions of a given kernel, like gnumach-1.6.custom<current date> or gnumach-1.6.custom1, gnumach-1.6.custom2, etc However, I'll fix this, a new patch will follow subsequently.
