Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dpkg

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.16.0~ubuntu5
Architecture: amd64

dpkg creates files with odd timestamps if a statoverride entry matches
that file:

root@isis:~# aptitude reinstall mlocate
…
root@isis:~# ls -l /usr/bin/mlocate 
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root mlocate 39464 8245921732384219680 /usr/bin/mlocate
root@isis:~# ls -l /usr/bin/mlocate 
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root mlocate 39464 Mar 21 06:40 /usr/bin/mlocate
root@isis:~# aptitude reinstall mlocate
…
root@isis:~# ls -l /usr/bin/mlocate 
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root mlocate 39464 8245921732384219680 /usr/bin/mlocate
