minimizes distance between now and the timestamp. This procedure
is part of the core protocol specification.
An instance's pivot time is constructed from BUILD_EPOCH defined at configure
time in config.h. If BUILD_EPOCH is set to a known time then the binaries are

or using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
