The replacement I used when converting the X gate from hg to teamware was
to include the output of "hg id" as the mcs -p comment for our binaries,
so for instance, in a nightly build, you might see:
% mcs -p X_NV_nightly/sparc/SUNWxorg-server/reloc/bin/Xorg | grep xorg
@(#)xorg-server 1.7.5 (4b013f549850 tip)
but our nv_135 biweekly (the first built from our hg gate) will have:
% mcs -p B135/SUNWxorg-server/reloc/bin/Xorg | grep xorg
@(#)xorg-server 1.7.5 (a2113251a45c nv_135)
(As you can see, we continue to include the upstream tarball version, as
we did in our SCCS/TeamWare builds, but that's not relevant in ON.)
