able to change the system date.

What needs to be "solved"? The database close sets the "Last source update date/time" when the source was [or inconclusively may have been] updated. Because features of the [pre]compilers\linker\binder\debuggers\interpreters depend heavily on the value maintained by the DB, there was [and presumably is still] no external user interface to change the value.

Why would there be any requirement to change the value to something which is not a reflection of reality? And if the values are changed [esp. if not by QDBCLOSE], then be sure to understand the consequences if not also\afterward effecting necessary recompile et al.
