Plus one to this initiative!

I also wanted to share the tip to use libfaketime as the easiest way
to test if a build or test suite works on an arbitrary future date. I
am currently testing that the MariaDB upstream test suite passes in
2037 and 2028 using libfaketime like this:

Syntax: faketime <date> <command>
Example: faketime "2038-03-03" mariadb-test-run
