How does ftpfs preserve timestamps on FAT32 ?

[Frédéric L. W. Meunier <lists pervalidus tk>]

Silly question, but when I download something with LFTP,
ELinks, or another application on Linux to a FAT32 partition
the timestamps aren't preserved. The same on Cygwin.

Midnight Commander preserves them. What do the other
applications lack ?
