Could it be that your timezone is east of Greenwich (not likely with a
.uk address but nevertheless)?

Make used *unsigned* UTC times for internal comparison, so if your
localtime 1970-01-01 00:00:00 (the timestamps get converted to
localtime when printed into the warning string) is really, say,
1969-12-31 23:00:00 UTC, make will compare it as some date far into
the future.
