Can't build R14B from source

[Alexey Romanov]

When building R14B, I've got the following error:

Comparison with R13B showed types date(), time(), and date_time() used
to be defined in file.hrl and are now defined in file.erl, and moving
the definition back allowed everything to compile. Did anybody else
run into this error? Presumably if many people were, it would have
been fixed long ago, but I can't see why it would only happen for me.
