[Pythonmac-SIG] os.path.getmtime bug?

[Erik van Blokland]

from macpath and my previous post:
>>def getmtime(filename):
>>    """Return the last modification time of a file, reported by os.stat()."""
>>    st = os.stat(filename)
>>    return st[stat.ST_MTIME]


>>def getatime(filename):
>>    """Return the last access time of a file, reported by os.stat()."""
>>    st = os.stat(filename)
>>    return st[stat.ST_MTIME]

looking at it more closely, both getatime() and getmtime() return 
st[stat.ST_MTIME], can't be right either. No?
And when I fix the import problem macpath, the number returned by 
getmtime() still seems to be in a different epoch when compared to 
time.time(). As macpath is a mac specific module already we could do some 
math on it and get it to be the same epoch as time.time() is in?
