Bug#1102631: gnome-nibbles FTCBFS: fails to compute the build time

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: gnome-nibbles
Version: 1:4.2.0-1
Tags: patch upstream
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs

gnome-nibbles fails to cross build from source, because it attempts to
compute the build timestamp using the host compiler. In theory, that
should be breaking reproducibility, but practically it does not as that
time is not actually being used in the resulting package.

I therefore propose to completely drop the machinery to compute and
record a build timestamp. If you absolutely must, please use the native
compiler instead of the cross compiler here.
