Sounds good!

No no, I actually find it quite exciting! :-)
Seriously, it’s good to see old cruft vanish. I’ve looked at the
commits on that branch and they all LGTM.
Regarding <time.h>, we’ve actually been using Gnulib’s headers, so most
likely the difference wasn’t relevant anymore.
So: LGTM!
It would be good to have some testing on OSes other than GNU/Linux
eventually (I’m looking at you, Greg ;-)).
Thanks,
Ludo’.
