I feel like committing the following patch to /usr/src/release/Makefile:
Index: Makefile

# Automatic SNAP versioning:

BASE = 3.0
BUILDNAME?=${BASE}-${DATE}-SNAP

I mentioned this to Jordan once before I got commits, but his reply
was "we'll get around to it some day".
Niobe is running make release with that patch right now, but I don't
think I'll encounter any trouble. The only thing I can think of that
it might break is ordering, i.e. if anybody is relying on collating
order to sort snapshots, since 1998 is lexically less than 98.
Comments?
