I've managed to restore them when needed (despite Redhat's best
efforts over the years, including shipping a version of restore
that couldn't restore symlinks). In general we don't store users
data on the Linux machines, so it is only the OS that will get
chewed.

Maybe I should resign to using tar on Linux. Can tar be made not
to modify the ctime, mtime and atime?
