On the contrary, pushing the change into gnulib will make testing easier: If you provide a unit test, I can do "./gnulib-tool --create-testdir ..." and test it on the mingw machine I have access to; other people here on this list have access to Cygwin, Solaris and other machines. A unit test can basically do the following: echo > stamp1 sleep 2 echo > testfile sleep 2 echo > stamp2 sleep 2 mv testfile renamed sleep 2 echo > stamp3 and then verify that mtime(stamp1) < birthtime(renamed) < mtime(stamp2) < ctime(renamed) < mtime(stamp3).
