-CURRENT (Jul 25), alpha.

An increasing number of executables on that box are sporting ever
newer mtimes.  This appears to have been going on ever since the
Jul 25 update.  There is no clear pattern which executables are
touched.  md5 comparisons with previous backup levels (using a Jul 13
copy of md5) suggest that the executables have not been changed.

For various reasons I consider it unlikely that I'm dealing with a
security issue here, although I'm looking into that as well.

Can anybody think of a technical explanation?
