For what it's worth, I have now been able to test a recent change to 
cygwin;s utime() implementation.  After building & installing a new 
cygwin kernel with that change, I then built a new automake from "clean" 
automake-1.4l sources. (that is, no local diffs).

It passed the three pesky tests lex3, pr9, and pr87.  Therefore, today's 
change to cygwin's utime() successfully works around window's 
brokenness, with the following conditions:

1) running on NT or W2K
2) using NTFS
3) CYGWIN variable contains the 'ntsec' flag

I'm now going to go run the whole automake testsuite and make sure there 
are no regressions...
