Thanks for pointing that out.  I couldn't reproduce the issue until I ran
the tests on a tmpfs mount, and discovered that rsync is optimizing away a
utimensat() call if it thinks that the file already has the right time set
(which is just a comparison of the mtime integer seconds).  So, the faster
run on a tmpfs mount caused the initial rsync copy to not bother to set the
nanosecond time value on the newly created file.  I'll look into a fix for
this soon.
