What I did was import the 1.0.2 sources into our CVS repository, then I checked it out into a separate build hierarchy; maybe CVS didn't preserve the dates. I also did the "no-no" of building in the same hierarchy as the checked-out sources instead of the recommended "objdir" method. I'm not sure which of these may have caused the problem. Cheers, John D.
