Arguably, a workaround might be to remove support for the interval
options now, and then treat it as "one day", and just check that
%Y-%m-%d for today != the one for the stamp.

This addresses the problem with DST, and breaks every non-default
configuration. Which is something we will have to live with eventually
anyway I guess.

So basically speaking, under systemd, intervals will always be "not the
same day", other settings will be ignored and produce a warning, and
you're supposed to configure the timer. This still allows us to play
catch up by running the timer multiple times per day, until we get a
fixed systemd.

Under non-systemd systems in Debian, stuff will continue to work as it
does now.
