Summary: Plugins dont keep their timestamp

Initial Comment:
Plugins (dlls) added to the installer don't keep their original timestamp, and the setup.exe differs because of this. I tried to compare two setup.exe programs compiled with the same input files, but at different times, and they have different sizes and different md5 values. Extracting all the files with 7-Zip showed that they all matched except for a couple of timestamps; the $pluginsdir dlls.

I think the issue comes from script.cpp, the line that sets build_datesave=0 after saving a temporary copy of the setting. If this were set to 1 it might fix the problem
