Yeah, I didn't like the "4STAMPS" terminology at all.  It ended up being
moot for that patch, because the answer eventually turned out to be that
we needed to decouple the Julian-date boundaries from the datatype
boundaries altogether.  But I would've renamed those macros to something
else if they'd stayed.
