test1596: let test pass after year 2036

Background:
As part of my work on reproducible builds for openSUSE, I check that
software still gives identical build results in the future. The usual
offset is +16 years, because that is how long I expect some software
will be used in some places. This showed up failing tests in our package
build. See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this matters.

I tested that it passes on x86_64 in year 2041 and i586 in year 2037.

(but on i586, I got `TESTFAIL: These test cases failed: 31 46 61 1415`)

Closes #17665
