Sorry, I was confused: Clearly, if the generated files are included in
snapshots, they will have a more recent time stamp than their sources, so
this should not be an issue (unless some tar does not obey file dates).
The real problem is that snapshots do not contain these generated files.
Didn't we agree to include these for FTP snapshots and releases?
