262	luci_fixtime doesn't work right on mini_fo (with patch)	heath@…		"There's a problem with mini_fo where if you 'touch' a file which resides in the /rom but not the /overlay, the timestamp of the file doesn't actually change. In a new openwrt installation, the luci_fixtime script fails to update its own timestamp due to this issue.

As a workaround, the included patch simply adds 'cat /dev/null >> luci_fixtime'. Since the file gets opened for updating, the filesystem makes a copy of the file into /overlay which allows subsequent 'touch'es to actually modify the timestamp. The touch command is still required, because the 'cat' command doesn't actually write anything into the file.
