FYI I regularly get these messages when I forgot to 'make clean' before
'make' - which happens more often these days because parrot's 'make
realclean' doesn't clean rakudo.
Still I think the build system shouldn't require a 'make clean', so
perhaps there's a dependency missing somewhere?
(Since I can't reproduce it with a maximally parallelized build (`make
clean; make -j) I guess it's a missing dependency between source file
and binary, not between different binary targets).
Cheers,
Moritz
