On face value, it doesn't look to me that the quotation marks would
solve the problem. But regardless of that...I can guess that `stat`
comes from GNU coreutils, but I don't know what version of `touch` you
are using. I don't have access to any GNU versions that will accept a
seconds-since-epoch timestamp.
