You know, I think it'd be worthwhile to pull the build time out of the
version. Not only would we be able to then dump the flx_version_hook
file, but then it'd also make our libraries and executables consistent
over rebuilds so that they can be hashable. I know of at least one
packaging system (http://nixos.org) that relies on that property.
