Ok, so this is a timestamp thing.  I had a system once where this
happened, because some of the files configdata.pm depended on were
timestamped in the future.  It turned out that the time of that
systems was badly set (in the past), so it took that time difference
before 'mms' (this was a VMS machine, 'mms' is the 'make' command
there) stopped reconfiguring.

configdata.pm depends on Configure, Configurations/*.conf,
Configurations/*.pl, Configurations/*.tmpl, and all the
build.info files.  If any of those are newer, 'nmake' will
automatically reconfigure and ask you to run again.

Timing is everything ;-)

Cheers,
Richard
