I have now cross-checked on Linux, and the issue is exactly the same. So unless
someone here reports differently, I would now assume that setting access and
modification times on the remote end via scp works for no-one in libssh2 (or
via the shell as shown above).
So the big question is, what is the "mystery meat" in OpenSSH's scp command
line utility that makes it successful in setting access and modification times
on the (very same) remote end? As I said, using the verbose option (scp -v)
makes it look as if it did exactly the same as libssh2, while obviously it
doesn't.
Very strange.
