I use the ctest build name to put all information about the host system and 
compiler in there. E.g. it looks like this: "master Description: openSUSE 11.3 
(x86_64) x86_64 g++ (GCC) 4.6.1 20110429 (prerelease)"

So basically "<git branch> <lsb_release -b> <uname -m> <g++ --version|head -
n1> <CXXFLAGS>".

Cheers,
	Matthias
