That uname hash will match a commit in our illumos-omnios tree:

http://omnios.omniti.com/browse.php/core/illumos-omnios

http://omnios.omniti.com/changeset.php/core/illumos-omnios/eae537bad35e09fb6be6db8ea368cd25c07ef77e

If you work backward from there you'll find that
eb36692e8e3d1add7a4530a507a828476656941b is the version of
illumos-gate we branched from.  You are running release.  My bloody
box is  bit easier:

; uname -a
SunOS vitrial 5.11 omnios-33fdde4 i86pc i386 i86pc

commit 33fdde4db8344e316d03e0582b73cdc5608c8f1e
Merge: 1568459 989f280
Author: Theo Schlossnagle <jesus at omniti.com>
Date:   Thu Oct 4 18:11:52 2012 +0000

    Merge branch 'upstream'

So we pulled in from [989f280] on illumos-gate.. which happens to be
the latest commit as of this email. :-)

Hope that helps.
