Subject: [PATCH 06/29] Fix timing bug on high-speed builds
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Problem reported by Bogdan via Jacob Bachmeyer in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/autoconf/2023-04/msg00002.html
* bin/autom4te.in: If a file timestamp equals a dependency’s
timestamp, consider the file to be out of date.  Although this may
result in extra work, it fixes some rare timing bugs.
