Does anyone know how to change the release version of the source

FreeBSD 5.3, while it will work just fine on 5.5 and even 6. I am
wondering i can change the version of RELENG_5 code so that this
software will think its 5.3-R and let me install. I have tried
changing the variable in /usr/src/release/Makefile, but that seems
to have no effect.
Take a look at sys/conf/newvers.sh
Excellent, thanks! I'm presuming i have to do a full build/install
world for this to take effect. Do you think that anything may break
because of this manual change, even if i used RELENG_6 code? I will
not be installing any ports.
If the software you're using gets the version in the same manner as
uname, then all you should need is a new kernel.
