Hello,

Currently the mdate-sh is timezone sensitive, which means that if a file is
not modified but timezone modified then output differ.

This triggers rebuild of targets such as texinfo targets even if no change
was performed.

For example, build machine with timezone X created tarball, then another
build machine with timezone Y build the package out of the tarball, while
no file was actually changed, the mdate-sh triggers rebuild per different
timezone.

A possible solution is to return the date in UTC timezone regardless of
system timezone.

Alon Bar-Lev.
