Ah, that's a mistake then. Mentioning that snapshot date was included by
accident because it was a boilerplate.

Mentioning that checkout date was the mistake, that's all. Using a recent
snapshot should result in much better behaviour. And the descripion of
stackalign.pat does say it doesn't apply for snapshots after 2000-03-13.

I'll remove the snapshot date.
