Hmmm... It would seem that either there is a timestamp problem and make
wants to regenerate acconfig.h because it's timestamp is older than
[what??].  In which case `touch acconfig.h` might fix the problem as I
suggested at the previous occasion.  Does this have any effect?

_Or_ what I'm now thinking might be the case:
The %.h rule in the Makefile causes make to try to find something to
compare every header files time stamp against.  If you

        touch macros/acconfig.h.m4 ; sleep 2 ; touch acconfig.h

does this help?

If it does then it'll probably stop at whatever next header file doesn't
have a corresponding macros/%h.m4 file.  Hmmm... strange if that is the
case.

Please let me know what happens and then we can inform the libsigc++
maintainer with a detailed report.

Allan. (ARRae)
