As far as I know, that is new to Redhat in its Enigma release numbered 7.2. Makefiles previous to Enigma defaulted to no specification in the EXTRAVERSION part of the naming scheme. Before now, that value was just blank in Redhat, at least. Now it has a default value. Of course, it's trivial to go change the value, should someone wish.
