  The main driver of this change is to move away of using 32-bit
timestamps.  Based on discussion where systemd should support
RFC5424 [1], it decided to move away from implementing on glibc [2]
and just replace the use of localtime by gmtime.  It is a deviation
from RFC3164, but it improves some corner cases [3].
