I seem to have found an issue with how timestamps from an NFS served volume are showing up on VMS.

I see the correct timestamps on the Linux system, but the wrong timestamps on the VMS system which is causing make to try to run autoconf or automake, which I do not yet have available.

So far the only way I know to get around this is to come up with a script to touch certain files in the right order.

The other issue is that on VMS, that check adds a considerable amount of time to the run of make, even when it is successful, to it would be very useful if there was just some way to turn it off.
