Hi!
While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that docbook-utils doesn't generate reproducible manpages.
The embedded timestamp is using the build date and also varies depending
on the configured locale.
The attached patch adds support for the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment
variable [2] and uses the C locale for the human-readable month
(which also fixes #214982).
Regards,
Reiner
