Ping!
This is still happening with 3.9-rc5.
[chris:~/kernel/linux]$ make bzImage
...
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#14)
[chris:~/kernel/linux]$ make kernelrelease
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
3.9.0-rc5
[chris:~/kernel/linux]$ make kernelrelease
3.9.0-rc5
I'm assuming that the output from 'make kernelrelease' should be the
string that represents the kernel release and only that string.

In Linus' current tree, the first time the command "make kernelrelease"
is run after building a kernel, the output contains some unwanted text.
Subsequent uses of the command produce the expected output. This appears
to be a regression - 3.8.2 does not have this problem.
This is easily demonstrated from the command line by the following:
<build the kernel>
...
System is 2311 kB
CRC a4e38b86
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#186)
$ make kernelrelease
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig 3.9.0-rc1+
$ make kernelrelease
3.9.0-rc1+
Happy to test the fix.
