I have seen this same behavior from other applications which use
memory mapped files.  I think it's an OS issue.

Hypothetically, of course, J could update the modification time
every time it modified the data.  This would, however, slow down
all operations which modify memory mapped files.

I do not know if J gives us a nice way of bumping the modification
time manually.
