Erm. `find -not' is not POSIX, but `find !' is.

I have some problems with these definitions. If there are several
files that have the youngest time stamp, then the order depends on
the locale.
Nia? How can the locale change the order to time stamps?

$ touch a B
$ LC_ALL=C ls -1t
B
a
$ ls -1t
a
B
$ l

I work on a set of projects that share header files, and I have
found it quite useful to spare compilation cycles by using
AC_SUBST([INSTALL_HEADER], ['$(SHELL) $(install_sh_DATA) -C'])
i.e., adding an option -C to install-sh to have a behavior
similar to move-if-change. The name of the option
