Here's a thought... why not alter the test to work with fixed times and separate the atime tests from the mtime tests. For atime, we can set utime(filename, (0.0, ...)) and see if a subsequent os.stat() returns st_atime as 0.0 -- that'll tell us whether or not atime is affected. For the mtime tests, rather than having a variable UTIME_EPSILON, just have fixed dates that match the expected precision of the underlying platform?
