I'm not sure how relevant it is, but this issue was recently filed on

This seems to be about preserving timestamps when extracting wheel files.
There is also an older (closed) pip issue that might be relevant
("Preserving timestamps on copy"):
https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/3201
This is a different issue about preserving timestamps from the source
directory to the temporary build directory.
So both are different issues, and I agree with both: during the source
extraction and build process, you want to preserve timestamps as much as
possible. But for the installation, you do NOT want to preserve timestamps.
