+ * Each kernel has a major and minor version number. Changes in
+ * the major number in general indicate a change in exported features.
+ * Changes in minor number usually correspond to internal-only
+ * changes that the user need not be aware of (in general). These
+ * values are stored at boot time in the machine_info strucuture and
+ * can be obtained by user programs with the host_info kernel call.
+ * This mechanism is intended to be the formal way for Mach programs
+ * to provide for backward compatibility in future releases.

+ * number stuffed into the version string - mja, 5/8/87 ]

+ * Following is an informal history of the numbers:

+ * version is incompatible. It is used at boot time to determine which
