>Description:

  For a struct utsname, after calling uname(), uts.version seems to
contain corrupted string.


>How-To-Repeat:

  For the following period of code.

  struct utsname uts;
  uname(&uts);
  printf("on %s %s.%s",uts.sysname,uts.release, uts.version);

Printf results :

on FreeBSD 2.0.950412-SNAP.Ý¿ï`ðÍàÞ¿ï 

the uts.version seems corrupted. 

>Fix:
	
  None. Is it my problem or uname's ? Since I didn't build world, just kernel
and uname() were rebuilt...
