I'm afraid a) is not the correct solution here. If you want to make sure that the bytecode is strictly newer than the source, you *have* to re-compile if they have the same mtime. This is especially true when taking into account that the mtime resolution is finite (and pretty coarse indeed in cases like ext3). Setting the mtime of .clj files one second earlier than .class should Do The Right Thing™.
