Correction: it doesn't do anything special for directories. However,
whatever it does do (CreateFile, actually) seems to work on Win2k, at
least (albeit with a comment in the code that
/* Note: It's not documented in MSDN that FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES is
sufficient to change the timestamps... */
[lines 467-468 of winsup/cygwin/times.cc]).
