Public bug reported:

When creating a new Makefile by visiting a new file, a template of a
Makefile is automatically inserted by Emacs. Included is a timestamp
that will update as the file is saved. However, it deletes the comment
sign while updating, thus causing the successive 'make' call to fail.

For example, this is how the Makefile lines 7 and 8 look like before a save, 
when visiting the new file:
## Started on  Mon Jul  7 08:07:04 2008 Stephan Fabel
## Last update Mon Jul  7 08:07:04 2008 Stephan Fabel

After the save, it looks like this:
## Started on  Mon Jul  7 08:07:04 2008 Stephan Fabel
Last update Mon Jul  7 08:08:06 2008 Stephan Fabel

There is no way other than deleting line 8 to circumvent this behavior.
