When building a program with make, sometimes it will complain that one of the dependancies has a timestamp in the future and refuse to properly rebuild the program. DOS partitions do not keep time down to the exact second (I think only every 3 seconds, or something), and this confuses make a bit. It's easy to work around (wait a few seconds before typing make), but it's still annoying.
When working under MSDOS, MAKE rebuilds ALL ... I am using "double dependence" ie .f->.c .c->.o and in a dos box under windows, dependencies work... under DOS, everything builds (works, but incorrect, takes lots of time)
Upgrade to Make 3.77 or later.
