I am a new user of djgpp tools and use them at home and at office. I
recently discovered encountered a strange behaviour of cp.exe I can't
explain. On one computer (home), the command "cp -p fileX dirX" works
perfectly (ie, timestamps are preserved) while on the other (office), date
and time of the copied file are set to the present.
