I think this problem is caused by the `cp' program of msys, it can't
preserve the modification time of file while copying.

My msys installation is broken some month ago, after my Windows XP
update itself automatically. And I got a "Couldn't reserve space for
cygwin's heap" error when trying to use msys program such as `cp', I
have to replace the `msys-1.0.dll' with 'new-msys-1.0.dll' according to:
