OS timestamps during hot backup

Oracle datafiles' OS timestamps are usually not updated until
the database is shutdown.  It seems logical to me that when a
tablespace is put in hot backup mode the OS timestamps of its
datafiles should be updated (for OS level incremental backups).
I was running Oracle 8.0.5 on HP-UX 11.0 and when I put the
database in hot backup mode I did not notice any changes in
the OS timestamps of the datafiles.  Could someone tell me why?
