I noticed a very strange bug in 2.0.32. File creation dates are in the
future on my machine. For instance:

# rm -f blah
# touch blah
# ls -al blah
-rw------- 1 jordy admin 0 Dec 3 22:37 blah
# date
Wed Dec 3 22:35:18 EST 1997

So, anyone's guess on what's happening? This is an unmodified 2.0.32 kernel
running on a p120 w/ normal ext2fs.
