Hi!

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that base-files could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch will stop recording the current time in gzip headers,
and adjust the files mtimes before building the binary package. With
these changes, base-files can be built reproducibly with our current
experimental framework.
