Why in the world does grep even care about timestamps on files?

The same reason 'awk' does. grep calls stat, fstat, etc., and the call fails with errno == EOVERFLOW if the file's timestamp is past the year 2038.

For the same reason I expect that awk, too, should use AC_SYS_YEAR2038 or its equivalent.
