Bug#894476: RCC: provide option to encode EPOCH timestamp

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "normal circumstances"? :)

How about e use S_D_E if it is setup/exported, otherwise use the mtime
of the file as before?

(This is the pattern/logic used extensively elsewhere in toolchains for
this very exact purpose; it would not be unique to rcc)


Best wishes,
