[M3devel] [M3commit] CVS Update: cm3

[Rodney M. Bates]

This works when I do a complete fresh cvs checkout on a different
machine and build, with flex disabled.  The checked-out files on the
second machine show the times I edited my originals on the first
machine, before committing.

But when, on yet a 3rd machine, I do a cvs update, both files show
identical times, the time that the update happened.  So something
more is needed.  Is there a way to get cvs to give updated files
the time they have in the repository, instead of when updated?

If anybody ever actually did change ada-lex.l, a touch ada-lex.c
in the makefile would be wrong.

After what I did, people who do an update now may go from building
fine (since they got the files initially from a checkout, which
gives the right time ordering), to failing.
