I *think* I'd be happy with 'clock skew in the build directory'.
You mean like
CPU -- NFS (Sources + Objects)
or
NFS1 (Sources)
/
CPU

NFS2 (Built Objects)
or
Local Disk (Sources)

I use the last one quite often these days but sometimes I use the
first.
When my clocks are a bit off I have noticed that
GNU make sometimes intermittently complains due to the "wandering
clock" problem.
I don't see 'wander' (case insensitive) in either the gmake 3.81 or
3.79.1 source trees.
What I mean is that the condition is borderline detectable so
sometimes it is detected and other times not.
