Ooh.  I think this needs some more fixes over sheepdog.  For one
epoch_log_read should account for it directly when reading from the
file, that is we need to be able to read SD_MAX_NODES + the time_t.

Probably better is to ignore the time in a plain epoch_log_read
and require a separate call for it, that uses lseek to seek to the
end of the file.  And epoch_log_read really needs a comment about
this time piggybacking.
