Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
Multiple files in /usr/share/doc/reference/ contain the current date, even when
built with MKREPRO. Thus multiple runs from the same source on different dates
do not produce the same files.

Affected files (at least):
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/mail/mail.ps.gz
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/mail/mail.txt
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/memacros/memacros.ps.gz
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/memacros/memacros.txt
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/meref/meref.ps.gz
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/meref/meref.txt
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/msdiffs/msdiffs.ps.gz
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/roff/msdiffs/msdiffs.txt
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/vi/vi.ps.gz
./usr/share/doc/reference/ref1/vi/vi.txt

Example difference for vi.txt:
 ·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​October·​7,​·​2015 
vs.
 ·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​·​October·​8,​·​2015 
below the header

How-To-Repeat:
build with MKREPRO on two different days.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Hardcode the date; or use the date of the file timestamp(s);
or use SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH (see https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/)

 Log Message:
 PR/50360: Thomas Klausner: if MKREPRO is set, provide a consistent timestamp
 for the files in the cdroms to be built. For now we copy the timestamp of
 <sys/param.h>. We could set an absolute timestamp too like -T 0 for the epoch.
