[ELDK] [PATCH] Make build timestamp configurable

Both ideas are good ones.  The only thing which I do not really like is
that you do not use any of the common formats for date/time stamps.
Although it looks to be a little bit harder to parse - what about a
format corresponding to rfc-2822:

dzu at ohwell:~[0]$ date  --rfc-2822
Thu, 28 Oct 2010 14:36:32 +0200

If that's not to your liking, what about this:

dzu at ohwell:~[0]$ date  --rfc-3339=seconds
2010-10-28 14:36:35+02:00

This is your format with the addition of the timezone information, which
I really like.

Cheers
  Detlev
