Generated makefile doesn't preserve core version [#1884670]

Running "drush make-generate test.make" on Drupal 7.18, test.make contains
projects[drupal][version] = "7.x"
instead of
projects[drupal][version] = "7.18"

If I then run "drush make ../test.make", Drupal 7.19-dev is installed (of course) in stead of 7.18.

I would have understood this if Drush treated modules the same way, but it doesn't. Is this intended behavior? It's not what I expected. (I though make-generate would create a make file that I could use to recreate an identical site.)

I can probably write a patch, if we agree that this is a bug (and not a feature).

drush make-generate should behave as you describe if --exclude-versions is specified, and should behave as you expect if it is not. If it's not working like that right now, that's a bug, and a patch would be welcome.
