I started getting this message when I moved to a new computer with Win
95 on it. The message only appears when shelled out to DOS, and then
only about every other make; I have never seen it in MS-DOS mode. I
haven't been able to figure out whether this represents a bug in MAKE,
or a bug in the Win 95 support for DOS programs.

The proximate cause appears to be that the library built by MAKE somehow
gets a timestamp that is later than the current DOS time, but I have so
far been unable to find the root of the problem.
