For that, we can use mktime.  The time zone offset isn't a big deal.  We 
would probably have to back up by the worst case zone offset so everybody can 
test right after building.

If we are using a build time, we can run an external script to generate the 
date in a convenient format.  date -u +%s looks good to me.

Another part for the big picture.

Except for the l_fp time-stamps in packets, all of the full times are POSIX 
times. (or should be)
