Persisting either ctime will propogate the confusion, I suggest splitting
them into intime and crtime.  Opinions?
I'll offer an APR 1.0 patch tommorow based on feedback.
 

Yes, yes, yes. Sorry I didn't notice this before. This would be a very 
good change.

Wow - and time is almost gone.  Sorry this got no response until today,
I'm not sure the powers that be really care for this change to go in until
2.0 at this point (it's an eliminated ctime and added crtime  intime
member of a transparent structure that's user-allocated.)

Would be really nice to see one more bit of feedback before I commit
such a change - amazes me we are the only two folks considering
this issue.  Sander Striker on 4/27/03 and Brian Pane the day after
pondered this a while, but apparently we are the only two with any
real concern about the ambiguity.  Anyone else care to chime in?
