Description
If you activate "auto generate build number", build the project - Delphi generates a number 3.7.61228.1582 (based on Date 2011-10-18).
If you build the same project again later it produces a number 3.7.61213.1576 (based on Date 2011-11-02).

It's very strange, because you can't compare versionnumbers to find out  which release is more actual.
Steps to Reproduce:
Build project in "Release" with VersionInfo
increase computer DateTime (by 1 day), or wait one day
Build same project again
