In the current code __DATE__ and __TIME__ are used to generate a unique serial number shared between two processes. Therefore using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for that is not correct here. I have submitted a patch upstream to fix that another way [1]. Unfortunately there is still work to do and I am currently lacking time to work on that. Help would be appreciated.
