The fact that installs from wheels don't preserve timestamps is a very
good argument that it's OK to NOT preserve timestamps in general. Any
package which would rely on preserving timestamps would already be
broken when installing using a wheel.
By the way, initially I thought that this was a distutils issue, but
it's clear now that it's really a pip issue.
