At least in Ken fs, you want the access time of the root (to get the
current fs time):

; date; ls -ldu /n/boot /
Sat Feb 11 17:45:13 PST 2006
d-r-xr-xr-x /      0 bootes bootes 0 Feb 11 17:45 /
d-rwxrwxr-x M 251502 adm    sys    0 Feb 11 17:45 /n/boot

It's done here, 9p1.c:1300,1301:

	if(d->qid.path == QPROOT)	/* stat of root gives time */
		d->atime = time();

and here, 9p2.c:1431,1432:

		if(d->qid.path == QPROOT)	/* stat of root gives time */
			d->atime = time();

I haven't looked to see if fossil does it.
