kernel/fs/lx_proc and kernel/fs/amd64/lx_proc both show up in the list of changed
files that wsdiff creates for each nightly build. And sure enough, in
lxpr_read_version(), there's a reference to __DATE__ and __TIME__, which we'd just
gone to great lengths to remove from the build.
I suppose that this is there for compatibility reasons, but the false positives are
annoying (and what are the implications for a patch, etc.). I believe that other
implementations (Janus, maybe) cooked this value up as something static, because no
one really cares about the value, but that may not be appropriate, either.
This was raised during the code review too, and we agreed to remove it
then. I believe it was removed from a different routine, but obviously
this instance should have been taken care of too.
