Could you please restore the Fedora 32 behaviour? Someone must have read

As I understand it, -N stands for NEW and therefore should return a true
when either a 'touch -a test' or a 'touch -am test' is given.
Why do you think `touch -am', which sets the atime and mtime to the same
value, should make -N true?
If test -N is a strict test that mtime > atime, it is working correctly
and you have managed to defeat it by setting atime == mtimne.
