Oh yes, this might be the problem. Sorry for my mistake.

(some time ago I set up age=0 in hope that it won't take the time in
consideration. When I found out tht it deleted the cache, I changed it to
-1. I prefer special values and dislike "high enough" values. maybe '0'
could be used for not considering mtime - if user doesn't want to cache
anything, DontCache section should be used probably)

I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
