I did `make temacs' and it compiled the .c files and linked them.
Then I did `make emacs' and it compiled them again! Why does this
happen? Is it intentional?

Did make say anything about clock skew or files stamps in the future?

I cannot tell now. However, the clock on this machine is only about 4 minutes
away from correct. Anyway, the source file times were generated on my machine
when I ran bzr, and I don't see how there can be clock skew within one
machine if you don't change the clock setting.

There can still be time stamps in the future, given how bad your clock
was.

I reproduced the problem and don't think it's intentional:
it was due to some convoluted timestamp logic when dealing
with the oldXMenu code. I fixed the problem that I observed
and installed the fix as trunk bzr 115169.
