Wrong file timestamps?

[wil]

I notice that file timestamps lack the microseconds part (i.e. set to 000000000)
See example below

Code: Select all

$ touch a
$ touch aa
$ touch aaa

$ stat a aa aaa
  File: `a'

I don't know if this is a problem; I can confirm this on the bubba, but also on two different desktops (one 32bit debian, and one 64bit ubuntu); I've been unable to locate an computer showing sub-second timestamps.

Default debian installs don't seem to show subsecond timestamps by default.
