Hmm. I think people should really stop using __DATE__ and __TIME__ as a "normal" thing.
By patching the compiler, we are actually hiding the problem, not fixing it. Sure, it will take more time and effort, but this is something that each upstream author should really do, not something we should do in their name to hide a problem which is really an upstream problem. I wish people not end up thinking in the line of "oh, I don't have to worry about __DATE__ and __TIME__ because dh and the C compiler takes care of making it constant for a given package release".
