I can't see any change between Automake 1.6 and CVS Automake
that could have caused this.
However, ISTR that time-stamps have only a 2sec precision on
some Windows file system. That could explain why this test
sometime fails, and sometime doesn't. Does this make sense?
Could you edit confsub.test, change 'sleep 1' to 'sleep 2', and
see if it still fails?
