:) Why not simply "touch fix_png"?

Took a little digging to refresh my memory as to why touch is
insufficient:

  
http://www.gnu.org/manual/autoconf/html_node/Limitations-of-Usual-Tools.html#Limitations%20of%20Usual%20Tools

Might not be an issue for us though.

Should I commit this as is, change it to

  + echo timestamp > fix_png

or revert to touch?

I'm inclined to change `date` to timestamp and be done with it.
