+# Mtime granularity problem.
+# It was observed that these commands:
+# make allnoconfig; sed -i -e '/CONFIG_TRUE/s/.*/CONFIG_TRUE=y/' .config; make
+# sometimes produce busybox with "true" applet still disabled.
+# This is caused by .config updated by sed having mtime which is still
+# equal to (not bigger than) include/autoconf.h's mtime,
+# and thus 2nd make does not regenerate include/autoconf.h.
+# Waiting for 1 second after non-interactive "make XXXXconfig"
+# prevents this from happening.
+#
+# We'd like to detect whether filesystem we are on has coarse mtimes,
+# but can't do it yet, bbox ls hasn't got --full-time.
+#MTIME_IS_COARSE:=@ls --full-time -ld | grep -F .000 >/dev/null
