Language can be so tricky. In the sense of being a "legal" 
argument to 'uname,' 's' is correct (it's listed in uname's 
manpage synopsis), but I meant to type 'uname -a' so that the 
version number would print..

Perhaps someone with knowledge of the matter -- I don't fit that 
description -- will help us out, but I don't think of 'HEAD" as 
a "release.' I think of HEAD as synonymous with 'current,' and 
reserve the term 'release' for sets of files officially titled 
using that word.

Yes, I'm like this at home; just ask my wife.
