Sorry if I misled you. I didn't intend it to be fixed that way, but with
the patch that was attached. Doing it this way you can not be certain
that the Entries file with the latest timestamp is the one containing
the data for the most recently changed file.

You really need to go through every Entries.

I tested doing it both ways and the patch method generated a later
timestamp than doing it this way.
