So when copying over from HDD to SSD I seem to have taken care of
keeping the filestamps as I did not have my SSD in year 2013.
If pacman had a bug in the past which did not properly move .pacnew into

Could a existing ".pacnew", created from older pacman versions, cause
issues here?
This is a pretty old Arch install. Never reinstalled. Always just
updated. The oldest date I could find is August 2012.
