Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
nfstest could not be built reproducibly.
This is because the dates in the manual page are generated from the
current build date.
A patch is attached that generates them from the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
environment variable (if it is present).
