Currently, the man page for uname gives the following option: -r Write the current release level of the operating system to stan- dard output. If you need to do grep -v # /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh | head -4 in order to write the correct and current release level of the operating system to standard output, then perhaps uname should be fixed to accommodate freebsd update's partial update process of the OS.
