weird version number during update (source)

Hello,

I did these steps:

Code:

portsnap fetch
portsnap extract
make buildworld 
make kernel
reboot 
mergemaster -p
make installworld
mergemaster -i

And now I see a diff containing this:

Code:

- FreeBSD 8.2-release-p7 (Generic) #0 : Mon May 14 11:50:18 CEST 2012
+ FreeBSD ?.?.? (unknown)

Is there something went wrong here and if so, how can I repair this?
