[emacs-wiki-discuss] Publishing emacs-wiki.el via TRAMP

When publishing my emacs-wiki to a remote machine using TRAMP, I
noticed the wrong files get published.  Files that are already
up-to-date get republished, and files that are not up-to-date do not
get published.

It turns out tramp-handle-file-newer-than-file-p returned the opposite
of what one would expect.  Kai says he'll fix this in CVS soon.

Meanwhile, here's some advice I've been using as a workaround:

,----
| (defadvice tramp-handle-file-newer-than-file-p
|   (before my-tramp-handle-file-newer-than-file-p () activate compile)
|   "Reverse arguments to tramp-handle-file-newer-than-file-p so it
| operates like file-newer-than-file-p."
|   (ad-set-args 0 (reverse (ad-get-args 0))))
