The new change should only affect exec() :-).

Nearby bugs:
- the man page has not been updated for any of the not so new file-
  descriptor based calls (lutimes(), etc)
- the man page (and no other man page?) doesn't distinguish between
  changing the file times and scheduling this change.  For ffs, most
  calls only schedule the change, and the change isn't made until
  someone looks using stat() or the file is last-closed.  Things like
  this should probably be described mainly in intro.2.
