Title:
  nautilus file copy doesn't preserve nanosecond timestamps

Status in Nautilus:
  Expired
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  nautilus 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1.1 in Ubuntu Lucid

  When copying files in Nautilus, the low 3 decimal digits in the copy
  are set to zero. In other words, it only preserves 2-microsecond
  resolution.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Create a file (on a filesystem supporting nanosecond timestamps) and view 
its timestamp:
  username@host:/dev/shm$ touch original-file
  username@host:/dev/shm$ ls --full-time original-file
  -rw-r--r-- 1 username username 0 2010-09-19 07:27:56.463178584 +0000 
original-file

  2. Copy file in Nautilus to the same or another filesystem, and view new 
file's timestamp
  # original-file copied to file-nautilus
  username@host:/dev/shm$ ls --full-time file-nautilus 
  -rw-r--r-- 1 username username 0 2010-09-19 07:27:56.463178000 +0000 
file-nautilus

  Expected result: New file has exactly the same timestamp. For example, cp 
--preserve=all works properly:
  username@host:/dev/shm$ cp --preserve=all original-file file-cp
  username@host:/dev/shm$ ls --full-time file-cp
  -rw-r--r-- 1 username username 0 2010-09-19 07:27:56.463178584 +0000 file-cp

  Actual result: last 3 digits of copy are 000.
