Agreed, of course.

This is not necessary because the getdate.m4, posixtm.m4 checks don't
require gl_FUNC_MKTIME. It's only the code lib/ which requires them.
Therefore the order of gl_GETDATE vs. gl_FUNC_MKTIME in the configure.ac
file is irrelevant, And since the configure.ac statements are (or should
be) made by collecting the little pieces of the modules _after_ performing
the closure w.r.t. "Depends-on" relationship, you don't need to list
gl_FUNC_MKTIME explicitly here.
