``Broken "make"'' and ``can't really use it'' seem like a wild
exaggeration to me.  We are talking about a warning that gets printed,
it doesn't stop Make from working as best as it could, so what's your
problem?  Does it fail to build the program(s)?  Does it recompile
files which don't need to be?  If not, why should you worry so much
because of a mere warning?

Besides, it's not Make that's broken, it's the Windows filesystem.
Can somebody explain how could a filesystem set time stamps of files
it creates to be 2 seconds in the future relative to the system clock,
and still call itself a filesystem?
