The tarball used is important in this case. The patches we prepare and such
are against the 2.6.19 tarball, NOT the 2.6.20. The unmodified source we're
using is 2.6.19 and that defines the release of the package.
The first patch applied is the 2.6.20-rc4 patch. So actually all our
custom patches which follow it must be adjusted according to that.
So although the tarball is 2.6.19 the final kernel definitely is
2.6.20-rc4 + patches.
