I'm sorry to discover that when I wrote these lines, I referred to
version 8.26-3, while it was not the most actual. The section "File
timestamps" didn't exist then.

However, I still believe that the times are not described precisely
enough by the terms "write","read","change" until it is totally clear,
what is meant by these (it is not totally clear to me).

Therefore I welcome your summary table, although not being able to read
it, since it's only a patch.
