Nope :-)  If you want to avoid any file regeneration you would need
something like this:

touch `find egcs-$date -name configure -print`
touch egcs-$date/gcc/{cstamp-h.in,bi-parser.c,bi-parser.h,c-gperf.h,c-parse.c,c-parse.h,cexp.c}

Yes, this could be done with a single touch/find, I just didn't feel like
it at the time.  Of course you replace $date with the snapshot date.

This is how we make sure all the timestamps are up-to-date in the
blah.tar.gz distributions.

Not really.  If you want to contribute something that would be great;
our primary means of access in the future will be remote cvs, so we
haven't put much time/effort into the temporary ftp/snapshots stuf.
