I haven't seen this behaviour.  At least for the simple package I'm
maintaining (pls), the only file in the source package that is changed
by R CMD build, is DESCRIPTION.  All .R and .Rd files are untouched
(even the modification dates are unchanged).  (This is on a Linux
system, I don't know how it works on MS/Mac.)
