Bug in os.stat-module??

Hi,

I try to get the different date-variables from a file on a cd-rom using the
os.stat-method. It returns the same integer for all three, atime, ctime and
mtime. Doing the exact same on a plain file anywhere else on the filesystem
other than cd-rom will return, three, or at least two different integers.
But on the cd-rom all the files have the same integer-value returned from
the os.stat-call. Why?

Anybody with the same experience and a possible workaround or fix?

I run Mandrake Linux 7.1 by the way.

Thomas
