No.

I use the "uname -s -r -v" command.  On my system, this says:
Linux 2.6.20-gentoo-r8-kosmanor #2 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jun 7 09:40:04 PDT 2007

Which tells me the running kernel is gentoo-sources-2.6.20-r8, with
tailoring for my preferences ("kosmanor"), the second compile (at the date
and time given), including SMP and pre-emptive scheduling,

You can also peek at your boot loader configuration.  In my case it's
/boot/grub/menu.lst.  You should be able to figure out which is your default
kernel.
You can also look at the output of "eix -I sources", the "-I" holding the
output to packages that have at least one version installed.
