I began seeing entries like "obsolete timestamp with cdr 53421" in *Messages* 
soon after this was committed.  It can be reproduced with `emacs -Q` and 
`list-packages'.  Everything seems fine otherwise.  There are a few similar 
reports, e.g., https://github.com/Malabarba/paradox/issues/154 although unlike 
me, they say they do not see the messages with `emacs -Q`.
