The sequent version of make is fairly dumb.  It doesn't know that symbolic
links should be followed to find the date and time of the file.  Or if
it does it ignores the information.  This causes untold hassle when trying
to build g++ using the installation guide.  Also note it doesn't define
$(MAKE) which causes problems at some stage of building the GNU stuff,
but I forget which.
