I'm not familar with 'what' but it looks like it's just seeking out the RCS
identifiers hidden in the binaries... 'ident' does this on linux..
[matthewm@toadhall (7) matthewm]$ ident /bin/mktemp
/bin/mktemp:
$OpenBSD: mktemp.c,v 1.4 1997/06/20 04:17:42 millert Exp $
[matthewm@toadhall (7) matthewm]$
... of course there's no garentee a binary will acutally contain any
identifiers so YMMV.
