Hi! While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that mapserver doesn't build reproducibly. During build the current date is embedded into the manpages. The attached patch uses the date from the latest changelog entry inside the manpages. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
