At Richard's request, I plan to soon change the return values of
`visited-file-modtime' and `calendar-time-from-absolute' to the form
(HIGH LOW) instead of (HIGH . LOW).  Grepping shows that these are the
last two functions that still return time values in this obsolete
form.  The return value of `visited-file-modtime' is also inconsistent
with that of `file-attributes'.

The change to `visited-file-modtime' requires supporting changes in
dired.el and tramp.el.   I do not know how tramp.el has to be handled
since there is also a standalone version.

I do not believe that changes in `lisp/gnus/nnfolder.el' or
`lisp/fast-lock.el' are needed, but I use neither, so I do not feel
100% confident about that.  Anyway, any problems I missed should be
easy to correct by simple changes like replacing cdr by cadr or the
like.

Diffs:
