Hi,

I've worked on applying the changes that have been commented in several
messages from this thread.  Find the patch and changelog attached.

I've changed the use of fatal_error to error_at.  Now the parsing will
return -1 if there's an error, and gcc will be able to output the line
where the __DATE__ or __TIME__ macro was used that caused the error.

I've added a callback that allows parsing the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH env var
right at the point where the date macros are expanded.  I've removed
some uneeded stuff from my previous patch.

I've also patched the driver to set the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH env var to the
current date when the -fcompare-debug is set.  I've tested this building
llvm with such flag.  
Markus could you verify that the patch indeed fixes the issue?

Thanks for the comments :)

Change applied.

Applied as well.

I've added a comment to clarify this fact in the documentation.

gcc/c-family/ChangeLog:

2016-05-05  Eduard Sanou  <dhole@openmailbox.org>

	* c-common.c (get_source_date_epoch): Renamed to
	cb_get_source_date_epoch.
	* c-common.c (cb_get_source_date_epoch): Use a single generic erorr
	message when the parsing fails.  Use error_at instead of fatal_error.
	* c-common.h (get_source_date_epoch): Renamed to
	cb_get_source_date_epoch.
	* c-common.h (cb_get_source_date_epoch): Prototype.
	* c-common.h (MAX_SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH): Define.
	* c-lex.c (init_c_lex): Set cb->get_source_date_epoch callback.
	* c-lex.c (c_lex_with_flags): Remove initialization of
	source_date_epoch.

gcc/ChangeLog:

2016-05-05  Eduard Sanou  <dhole@openmailbox.org>

	extension.
	* gcc.c (driver_handle_option): Call
	setenv_SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_current_time.
	* gcc.c (setenv_SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_current_time): New function, sets
	the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable to the current time.

libcpp/ChangeLog:

2016-05-05  Eduard Sanou  <dhole@openmailbox.org>

	* include/cpplib.h (cpp_callbacks): Add get_source_date_epoch
	callback.
	* include/cpplib.h (cpp_init_source_date_epoch): Remove.
	* init.c (cpp_init_source_date_epoch): Remove.
	* internal.h (cpp_reader): Remove source_date_epoch.
