glibc is not only for Linux. POSIX allows either behaviour, see
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/rename.html
APPLICATION USAGE
Some implementations mark for update the st_ctime field of renamed
files and some do not. Applications which make use of the st_ctime field
may behave differently with respect to renamed files unless they are
designed to allow for either behavior.
