Does tramp actually have to contruct any such value?  From a cursory look
it only has to process the return value of visited-file-modtime, which is
easy to handle both ways.  But probing the correct style is not difficult
either, you just have to call visited-file-modtime once in a dummy buffer
visiting any random file (which does not need to exist) and examine the
returned value.
