I deploy a build system to many locations throughout the company, and these locations are managed by diverse IT groups. A big problem is that the system time on these build systems doesn't match the system time of the mounted NFS filesystems to which the build outputs. The skew can be as much as .06 seconds. This confuses make and constantly breaks the build.
Unfortnately, the IT groups refuse to fix their system times. And everyone comes crying to me. I heard that there is a way to compile make to be more robust in the face of skewed system times. I took a look at the source and nothing jumped out at me. Any suggestions?
