Thank you for all your responses.
I figured out a way to solve the problem. Originally I stored all the files
on an ancient Next file server. According to a warning message from Matlab,
it may have timestamp problems.
``This server appears to support UNIX-style directory timestamp updates.''
Now, I moved the source to a NT file server. And it worked out.
