As the latter file contains the dat and time of the compilation, this change ensures that the kernel will be relinked with every make call, even if it is run just after a successful make run. In my work as the bcm43xx maintainer, I make frequent trial changes to that module. It seems a waste to have to relink the kernel with every such change. Larry
