Hi.

is it possible?

Good points. I might have overvalued the gain of easily recognizing

You can get this behavior if the files are on a server whose time is

Good catch. We're using roaming profiles here, so my home dir is on some

Try cat testfile or something along these lines that creates a file
without explicitly resetting the timestamp as touch is doing. I think you

Glad you found the root of the problem, and that it's not in gnulib.
Likewise. For future reference, we avoid stdnoreturn.h in gnulib
