With Emacs 21, the behaviour of vc-revert-buffer has changed, such that
the original modification time of the revision from CVS is restored. This
is very clever, but "make" now does not know that the file has changed and
the build process fails or creates an executable that does not represent
the source shown in the Emacs buffer!
What can be done to correct this? Emacs 20 did not have this problem.

(defadvice vc-revert-buffer (after touch activate)
"Reset the visited file's modification time to the current time."
(shell-command (format "touch %s" buffer-file-name)))
