You probably upgraded some files in wikilib.d from an earlier version (those 
from 2.2.34 were the same).

This happens because in the past we updated the documentation in the page 
SiteAdmin.AuthUser and I included it in newer releases without knowing that 
the upgrade.php script required fixed timestamps of the Site(Admin).AuthUser 
files in order to perform the upgrade. 

I fixed those timestamps for 2.2.34. This should concern wikis still using 
Site.AuthUser which upgrade from 2.1.X to the latest version, or which 
migrated from 2.1.X directly to 2.2.1+ without installing 2.2.beta or 2.2.0 
versions.

It is recommended to accept the upgrade and let PmWiki move your Site.AuthUser 
page to SiteAdmin. The SiteAdmin group is now by default read and write 
locked, only an administrator can see those pages which may contain sensitive 
information.
