Oops. Sorry, I misread what you had written. I don't know why, but I
*thought* you had said that after doing the update you had the bug, but
then after running the "touch" it went away. That would have been
consistent with what I had written.
Yes, I agree. It looks like a new file needs adding to the touchlist.
