This hour/minute/second format seems uncommon. Also for %Z it is
ambiguous and not better than %z, e.g.: CST could mean different time
zones.

I would vote for: +%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z

With this approach, I don't think we need this BUILD_INFO=y thing, as
this macro can be set by distributions to produce a reproducible
build.
