The modtime of a directory changes only if a file is created/deleted in
the directory itself. However, if you simply edit a file you may not
change the modtime of the directory. Try it yourself:

# touch /etc/env.d/.test
# stat /etc/env.d/.test | grep ^Mod
Modify: 2004-10-14 18:37:51.622977903 +0900
# echo "TEST TEST" > /etc/env.d/.test
Modify: 2004-10-14 18:37:51.622977903 +0900
# stat /etc/env.d/.test | grep ^Mod

Same goes for the modules.
