[Bug-cpio] directory times not restored

[Jeph Cowan]

Hi cpio maintainers.

I've restored a file system from archived tapes using

  cpio -icvdm < archive

The modification date/times of the files are maintained as original, but the
date/time of the directories is the date/time of the restore. Is there a way to
restore the directory with the original directory modification time? It seems 
that
this may not be possible as the act of putting(restoring) the files into the
directory is in fact a modification. Just thought I'd ask. Thanks in advance.

Regards... -jeph
