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