uname -v
You'll get an output similar to this:
FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE #17: Sun Dec 19 22:22:51 PST 1999
root@pandora.home:/usr/src/sys/compile/PANDORA
Tells you version number, #of times you've compiled the kernel since
original installation, the date the kernel was compiled, who compiled it,
and what the compile directory was.
Of course, if you have an unaltered /etc/rc script, you also get most of
this info as part of the 'message of the day' whenever you login...
