[wplug] Quick mtime query

[Joseph Prostko]

Cool, thanks, Rick!  It's just what I anticipated.

In the meantime, I decided to go digging into the Haiku source, and it
seems we add some small fudge factor into the nanosecond field in
order to help better distribute the keys in the B+ tree that houses
the modification time index.  In other words, it seems to be done by
design, but has a side effect I didn't anticipate.  I'll ask the main
filesystem dude about it, but I think it's going to have to be lived
with until R1 final of Haiku comes out, as it seems to be a feature
actually.
