symbolic link and touch

Hi:

I had to restore a filesystem on a new hard disc with lots of symbolic 
links (ln -s), those files took the date from the day I restore them, 
not from the day they where created on the old disc.
touching them with 'touch -t xxxxxxxxx' will not change their date. Is 
it impossible to keep or change the date of a symbolic link?
The behaviour I would expect would be to take the date of the 
destination file (am I wrong?).
