Re: [patch 3/3, resend] kbuild: correctly skip tilded backups in localversion files

I use localversion-$foo files in both srctree (scm tags such as
"-hg<changeset>") and objtree (config tag, "-default", "-pae", ...) and
find it quite useful.  The login prompt usually includes $(uname -r), so
you easily see what kernel the machine runs at the moment ...

cheers,
