I was never aware of this. Playing a bit with the Linux Kernel I
realized that when I have some arbitrary branch and create an annotated
tag on it the kernel reports 'linux-2.6.xx' without any suffixes which
is even more wrong.

So when we are using lightweight tags here we even increase the chance
that this happens.

I will create annotated tags in future anyway, so I think we can drop
this patch.
