Yes, this is due to the following Makefile snippet:

# set version code if this is a fresh CVS checkout
ifeq ($(wildcard cvs.datemark),cvs.datemark)
verset Makefile.ver: cvs.datemark
        echo IPSECVERSION=`date -r cvs.datemark +cvs%Y%b%d_%H:%M:%S` >Makefile.ver 
        rm -f cvs.datemark; 
else
[...]
Makefile: Makefile.ver

Whenever a release forgets cvs.datemark around, the version gets reset
to the date of that file.

Maybe later openswan releases have this fixed. I was anyway going to
package 2.4.3.
