Fix FTBFS on armhf/armel (Closes: #1069507)

This new FTBFS is due to the fact that the size of the time_t type went
from 32-bit to 64-bit for armel and armhf architectures, cf [1].

It seems that getdate.y didn't support the situation at the time it was
bundled into the dc3dd source code, but after digging a bit into the
gnulib git history, we find that it was fixed back in 2009, cf [2].

Without being familiar with the code of dc3dd, it's hard to be 100% sure
that it's the exact right fix, and it's not breaking anything, so I
opened a bug upstream to see if I can get confirmation that it's indeed
the right fix to apply, cf [3].
