Hi,

Man page of uname command states that uname options:

-r, --kernel-release     print the kernel release
-v, --kernel-version     print the kernel version

But I got the following result while using these options:

inlc7921> uname -r
2.6.16.60-0.58.1.3835.0.PTF.638363-smp

inlc7921> uname -v
#1 SMP Wed Dec 2 12:27:56 UTC 2009

This seems a little opposite to what man page suggests. Please do take a
look.
