I mentioned two such conditions in [1]: - Skewed clocks. (I see this regularly on VMs that have 1 or 2 hours of skew.) - If the configure file was created less than 1 second ago and the file system time resolution is 1 second. (This happens frequently in the Automake test suite.) Bruno [1] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2024-06/msg00054.html
