33  * Backwards compatible utime.
34  *
35  * The System V system call allows any user with write permission
36  * on a file to set the accessed and modified times to the current
37  * time; they specify this by passing a null pointer to "utime".
38  * This is done to simulate reading one byte from a file and
39  * overwriting that byte with itself, which is the technique used
40  * by older versions of the "touch" command.  The advantage of this
41  * hack in the system call is that it works correctly even if the file
42  * is zero-length.
43  *
44  * The BSD system call never allowed a null pointer so there should
45  * be no compatibility problem there.
