This is mad! :) The easiest solution is the one that I proposed in the PR, which is to use the effective date of the latest date in the $FreeBSD$ files. Of course this means going through each source file, but that's only time. Doing anything with CVSROOT/ and cvsup, etc, is complexity that isn't needed. l=`find /usr/src/sys | xargs grep '\$FreeBSD:.*$' | sed \ 's/.*\$FreeBSD://' | awk '{ print $3 "-" $4 }' | sort -n | tail -1` Kind of thing.
