Okay, it happened as predicted. See attached mails. How to proceed?
Ignore the whole rebuild? Get the time from a random number generator
(sounds like the best solution so far)? Set it back to the second mass
rebuild in Core and not the third?

BTW, do we want to discuss this endlessly? Solution please. *Fast*, FC5
is near. And no please discussion that takes longer then just fire off a
rebuild of those packages.
