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?
