+
+       Port new time stamp handling to old Emacs and to XEmacs.
+       This is needed for Gnus, which copies time-date.el and which
+       runs on older Emacs implementations.
+       * time-date.el (with-decoded-time-value):
+       Handle 'nil' and floating-point arg more compatibly with new Emacs.
+       (encode-time-value, with-decoded-time-value):
+       Obsolete only if new Emacs.
+       (time-add, time-subtract, time-less-p): Define if not new Emacs.
+
+       Improve time stamp handling, and be more consistent about it.
+       This implements a suggestion made in:
+       http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-10/msg00587.html
+       Among other things, this means timer.el no longer needs to
+       autoload the time-date module.
+       * time-date.el (seconds-to-time, days-to-time, time-since)
+       (with-decoded-time-value):
+       Treat 'nil' as current time.  This is mostly for XEmacs.
+       (encode-time-value, with-decoded-time-value): Obsolete.
+       (time-add, time-subtract, time-less-p): Use no-op autoloads, for
+       XEmacs.  Define only if XEmacs, as they're now C builtins in Emacs.
