Why this particular date instead of the Unix epoch?

Copy & paste from example. We can use the Unix epoch as well :)

I'm not sure what's going on with core-updates: the last evaluation was
aborted.

So, assuming that you can build groff on core-updates with this change
before Hydra builds netpbm on core-updates, LGTM. Once we build
core-updates to that point, we should wait for the next core-updates
cycle.
