>Description:
Stock version of sys/conf/newvers.sh looks for ${SYSDIR}/.svn
to determine if ${SYSDIR} is likely to be a subversion working
copy.
This is fine for subsversion-1.6 (and earlier), but as of 1.7,
the only .svn subdirectory in the working copy is at the root of
the working copy.
As a result, if subversion-1.7 is in use, newvers.sh fails to
detect that ${SYSDIR} could be a subversion working copy, and
therefore fails to try to invoke svnversion, so the SVN GRN
doesn't get placed in the uname output -- rather than the above,
it looks more like:

>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade to or install the 1.7 version of the devel/subversion
port, ensure that /usr/src is a subversion working copy suitable
for use with subversion-1.7 (and that kernel sources have been
modified), then rebuild the kernel.
After rebooting, examine the output of "uname -a".

[Note: I have tested the above; that's how the original "uname" output
