+/* Some filesystems can slightly offset the timestamps of newly created files.
+   To compensate for it, tar testsuite waits at least 1 second before creating
+   next level of incremental backups.
+
+   However, NFS mounts can offset the timestamps by bigger amounts.  
+   
+   This program returns with success (0) if a newly created file is assigned
+   mtime matching the system time to the nearest second.
