All of my filesystems are (local) NTFS.

BTW, stat() returns the correct values for all three.  Unfortunately, in
the process the access time gets changed to the current time.  Hence, the
next time stat() is called, it returns a st_atime value that is actually
the time when stat() was last called and not the file's real st_atime.

Thanks,
Jason
