I got my dos drives mounted with mount_msdos, and noticed that
some file times were changing (NetBSD-i386-1.0).  I experimented
with a floppy disk, and found the same behaviour; when a file
is accessed with certain programs (e.g., 'file')  the dos
modification time is changed.  Also, directory accesses are
being recorded as well.  Is this correct?  Is the only way
around it to mount_msdos as read-only?

thanks /jes
