See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2011-09/msg00026.html for 
the details. The problem doesn't bother much under Linux, as stat is 
fast enough there, but it turns out to make "make" unusable slow under 
Cygwin or MinGW, particularly when network drives are involved.

Yes, I'm using the CVS code for our project since September 2011 too, 
and it works just fine. At that time, I was just hoping that a new 
released version appears within the time frame of our project.

Paul, it would be very kind if you could give some rough estimate. I'm 
fully aware that you probably have much more interesting and important 
work to do, but some outlook on make's future would be great.
