make[4]: *** [test-suite.log] Error 1


The 'touch' program that rejects distant timestamps is:

$ touch --version
touch (GNU coreutils) 8.24.161-1204d
...

I think the problem is this comment:
# On platforms that fail to support timestamps within gzip's range,
# test that gzip warns when converting them from gzip format.

Gzip's behaviour depends on libc, and what the 'touch' program is doing
is a different thing. It's incorrect to assume that libc's behaviour and
touch's behaviour are consistent.
