I think it is the custom "label" used when compiling the kernel. I saw it 
after updating my 14-RELEASE to newest 14.4-RELEASE-p7 and spotted same 
thing too. After googling for a while, just a bad naming I guess , I 
thought i did something wrong while updating.

I just upgraded to 15.1-p1. When I log in or if I `uname -a`, the version 
shows "-dirty" after the version. Is this expected / intentional?
