| Emulating utimensat is rather difficult, due to the UTIME_NOW/UTIME_OMIT

Currently, gnulib only uses utimensat within the gnulib interface utimens,
which is not documented as supporting UTIME_NOW/UTIME_OMIT.  Therefore, I
think that in this case, a gnulib fallback is easier to implement than
waiting for a glibc fallback.
