freebsd stable - Oct 2014 - Small motd nit in 10.1

I noticed that the motd has been updated, which is great.
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/releng/10.1/etc/motd?revision=272461&view=markup

However, the following line could be improved:
  Show the version of FreeBSD installed:  uname -a

I would recommend changing the line to:
  Show the version of FreeBSD installed:  freebsd-version

Users often confuse the kernel version (uname -a) with the actual FreeBSD
version from the freebsd-version(1) command. Because of this, people needlessly
worry whether their system was updated correctly after freebsd-update has run,
because they erroneously check this with ?uname -a?. A small motd change will
hopefully prevent that.

Cheers,
WH

Sorry, I don't understand the source of confusion.

Besides the version, uname(1) also shows the architecture and kernel 
config file name.
