Comment (by gk):

 I've not reviewed the patch rebasing yet. But here come some notes:

 1) We are reverting 13e570f80cbfb299a8858ce6830e91a6cb40ab7b and suddenly
 need `texinfo` for that? At least the comment suggest that without
 reverting this patch we would not need it. Is that what you intended to
 say with the comment?

 2) Have you checked whether just passing the `no-insert-timestamp` flag to
 `APPEND_CCFLAGS` is enough? Or just to `APPEND_LINKFLAGS`? It seems to me
 either `no-insert-timstamp` is passed on to the linker in which case we
 would not need that extra patch or it is not passed on, in which case I am
 wondering why we add it to `APPEND_CCFLAGS`.

 3) s/Therefor/Therefore/
