Add a .dirstamp file to the gas/doc subdirectory:
- touch -d `date +%Y-%m-%d` binutils-2.44.90/gas/doc/.dirstamp
- tar rvf binutils-2.44.90.tar binutils-2.44.90/gas/doc/.dirstamp
- rm binutils-2.44.90.tar.xz
- xz -9 -k binutils-2.44.90.tar
+ touch -d `date +%Y-%m-%d` binutils-2.45.90/gas/doc/.dirstamp

Paranoia: Compare the checksum with the local version.
