'git describe' shows: v2009.12.0-178-gdc882c3 I.e. git doesn't find the more recent v2010.06.0 unannotated tag. The top-level Makefile then takes the '-178-gdc882c3' part and attaches it to '2010.06.0' (the current version string), making the output of the 'version' command: barebox 2010.06.0-00178-gcc827a1 (Jul 1 2010 - 09:02:45) which is plain wrong. Add the --tags option to make 'git describe' look for unannotated tags as well.
