I think he was asking for a quick way to tell when that was.
I dont know about others, but quite often I'll do a 'cvs update' when
the network is running well, and actually do a build later, and not actually
find a problem until a week later - at which time I've forgotten whether it
was Monday night or Tuesday night that I actually did the cvs pull,
although my Installation file is timestamped sometime last Wednesday.

That's pretty close - although the time is only of secondary concern.
I always begin a build attempt by synchronizing with, e.g.
r21-5-latest-beta. However that changes periodically even without
changing the "patch" number. I was hoping for something I could attach
to build reports or calls for help that would show more precisely which
baseline I was building from.
