Thanks ! Sorry for my bad report, I did a (too quick) look with
`cd /usr/src ; find . -name rtld` but failed to seek rtld\*

/usr/src/libexec/rtld-aout/Makefile:
INSTALLFLAGS= -fschg -C # -C to install as atomically as possible
Does FreeBSD need to preserve the date
( like ar r libc.a & ranlib scenarios of old) ?
or is this `atomically as possible' avoidance of date change, just a hope
that it'll be done quicker ? in which case should we add a subsequent
touch /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1
so that the target directory doesn't look suspiciously un-updated ?

Yes I suppose so after any current src/ updates,
But mine is a virginal unchanged "binaries match sources"
system, fresh from 5.0-RC1-i386-disc1.iso. I just did a
simple install to ensure nothing else was still missing,
after a repair of hard disk libs from 5.0-RC1-i386-disc2.iso
& then checked bin & lib dates looked OK.
