Subject: Why is X11 always "touched" for a dump?

Hello,

I've noticed that when using dump on a 1.6.1_STABLE system, regardless of
the level I dump on /usr, the X11R6 tree is always considered "recently
modified" - even though I _know_ it hasn't changed since the last dump.
This makes me think something is recursing through that tree and updating
the mtime of all the files (probably a daily/weekly/monthly script).

Has anyone already done the legwork of finding out what it is?
