If you run two independent commands anyway, I don't see why you need to
obtain the POSIX time here. If you're really after the time stamps agreeing,
then you should invoke date only once (strictly speaking this also applies to
the DATE vs TIME invocation, but lets hope people sleep at midnight rather
than building Xen).

In order to fill a PE header, do you really need to make this available in
compile.h?
