I would suggest something like 

grep '^#define[[:space:]]*UTS_RELEASE' /usr/src/linux/include/linux/* | cut 
-d\
 -f3 | sed 's/"//g'

the UTS_RELEASE should only be defined once in those files and that should 
work
across versions of the kernel (at least for now).

this would be put in the 'if all else fails' clause.
