This is a problem of the software itself. The main target (snixembed) depends on version.vala, which is marked as a phony target. Per make(1), "A phony target is a target that does not correspond to any object in the file system (more like a placeholder for a list of commands). Phony targets are always out of date at the start of a run..." So snixembed in turn is always out of date, and always gets rebuilt. Since the distfile already contains a correct version.vala, I would just patch to remove it from the .PHONY target.
