Problem with "compilation on demand"

Hi,
We are seeing a problem when a test machine has an incorrect system time
(well in the past).
jtreg does the compilation phase of a test using the specific
compilation instructions for that test and it passes.
However jtreg then warns about a .java file having a modification time
in the future and it then "on demand" compiles that file. But either the
compilation fails, or the test later fails, because the file was
recompiled without regard to the special compilation instructions for
that test.
Obviously we can fix the test machine but it seems to me that jtreg
should not be doing on-demand recompilation where there is an explicit
compile command.
Cheers,
David Holmes
