[Openstreetmap] Trackpoints with no timestamps

Hi,

I'm trying to upload a GPS trace from my Garmin eTrex series unit, but
gpsbabel writes out GPX files like this:

<gpx ...>
<time>2005-11-10T18:16:31Z</time>
<trk>
  <name>...</name>
<trkseg>
<trkpt lat="51.241415469" lon="-0.595498430">
  <ele>26.573608</ele>
</trkpt>
<trkpt ...>
...
</trkpt>
</trkseg>
</trk>
</gpx>

i.e. with no <time> tags for trkpt nodes.  I read in the FAQ that this
is no good for OSM, and that timestamps are needed.  Indeed, when I
upload a GPX file as-is only 1 point is seen.

What should I do to get timestamps for each trackpoint?

Tim.
