It is definitely bad habbit touching the files to marking them not
obsoleted. Many developers including me use 'INSTALL = install -C' which
not touch files when not needed, so we have correct date of the actual
last file change. With that your touching those files will falsely looks
updated. Please back it out.
Note that this commit does _not_ touch the file. As I've shown in my
previous letter, ':>>$file' will _not_ change file's modification time.
Maybe, we should avoid spelling ':>>' as a 'touch' in the commit log
to prevent such a confusion? BTW, knowing that ':>>$file' doesn't change
modification time, I'm really curiuos what this ".else / :>> / .endif" really
does? Isn't this a plain NOOP?!
