Yes, several.  E.g. /etc/cron.daily/prelink won't do anything up to 7 days
since last prelinking, if rpm database has not been modified.
prelink.cache now includes even negative hits - files that aren't
prelinkable, so all it needs to do in quick mode is stat all the files
in the directories that are given in prelink.conf and not in blacklisted
and compare the timestamps, ino_t/dev_t's of the files with those stored
in the cache.  Only what has been modified and whatever depends on the
modified libraries is prelinked.
