-> Using buildtime to check again for safety ...

I'm seeing this warning with 9.1.

It seems the version number of some packages was "extended" with another 
suffix and fou4s doesn't understand it.

As long as using buildtimes works (and it seems to be working - the 
updates where installed), this doesn't seem to be a problem, but I don't 
like warnings when doing updates :-)
