+...
+Reason:
+iso_tree_add_boot_node() takes node .mode, .uid, .gid, and .hidden from
+the parent directory node.
+It sets .atime, .ctime, .mtime to the result of iso_nowtime().
+But later, ecma119_image_new() sets itime to ecma119_determine_now_time()
+which comes in xorriso_repack_loop from xorrisofs option
+--modification-date='2019101422594900'.
+Time differences appear if the original catalog file does not bear the
+same time as the ISO's modification date.
