If I'm reading the sources correctly, it's determining the OS version
by looking at the elf headers of various files in this order:
getenv("ABI_FILE")
/usr/bin/uname
/bin/sh
So I would assume that `file /usr/bin/uname` shows 1400051 on your
system.
You can point it to checking another file by setting ABI_FILE[0] in the
environment or ignore the check by setting IGNORE_OSVERSION (like
advised). The "running kernel:" label seems a bit misleading.
Cheers
