I wasn't planning to, just a switch for whether the @xdoclet-generated 
line should include the date/time or not.  That way, Vincent can leave it 
out so the files don't change and his CVS repository is tidier, and I can 
leave it in so that ClearCase doesn't complain that nothing's changed.

The regeneration of the files isn't the problem (and as you say, it's hard 
to prevent anyway), just whether or not the contents have changed when we 
come to check them in.
