actually the vserver-sources only contain the vserver version number, and they
have the kernel version hardcoded in their ebuild

so e.g. in vserver-sources-2.0-r1 you have CKV="2.6.12" for Current Kernel
Version

the fourth version element is not shown, because vserver-sources uses
genpatches, which ship the patches but don't change the kernel version, so it
actually might be 2.6.13.4 but it does never appear in the version string..

right, all versions currently in portage have a naming scheme like
2.6.x-vs2.x.x-gentoo-rx
