timestamps

[Juergen Busam]

I actually have to use rsync-2.5.7-5.3E which is included in RHEL3.

I assume that the problem with the aging timestamps results in more
files are transferred...

I've no idea why the source timestamps are changed... Can anyone explain
this?? Or does anyone has an idea why it could happen?
