??? Do you mean that compressing files with gzip doesn't preserve
their time stamps?  It does here.  The gzip manual specifically says:

     `gzip' reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv coding
  (LZ77).  Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the
  extension `.gz', while keeping the same ownership modes, access and
  modification times.

What version of gzip did you use?
