??? Do you mean that compressing files with gzip doesn't preserve
their time stamps? It does here. The gzip manual specifically says:
`gzip' reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv coding
(LZ77). Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the
extension `.gz', while keeping the same ownership modes, access and
modification times.
What version of gzip did you use?
