Thinking more I realized that `org-file-newer-than-p' should not be 
reused for `org-babel-load-file'. I am attaching an updated patch for 
which I do not see any real drawback.

The only change in behavior is that if a file had modification time in 
future and it is overwritten by `org-compile-time' to current time than 
the function reports failure. I consider such case as a rare and 
peculiar one.
