I find this commit message misleading. AC_SYS_YEAR2038 does not
affect CPPFLAGS; it puts the _TIME_BITS definition into config.h
instead.
But I agree that it needs to be done early, because setting
_TIME_BITS to 64 (or similar for the mingw macro) may change the
results of configure tests that are run later.
