This has always been a puzzle for me too, but my guess is that the
true source of your problem may be due to a bug in the MS libc library 
"stat" function that returns a different time stamp for files now that 
day light savings time is active.  :-(

Make sure you get fix4 at:  ftp.cs.yale.edu/pub/gnat/updates/gnat301a

We have switched from using the MS libc stat function and are now using
the native NT GetFileTime function which seems to work nicely.  This
will show up in the next release, and hopefully put an end to
timezone foolishness.
