Beautiful, thank you! I had untarred the source on one system so I could
have it moved around with other sources that we build. The way the sources
get moved around would not have preserved timestamps, so that is definitely
the problem with the first case. The second case (--disable-nls) may be
related. I'll test with that with the correct timestamps.
Tom.

This should not happen. What I mean is, GNU make ships with all the
proper files already built, so that you do not need the msgfmt tool.
If you are seeing this invoked, it means that your system clocks are
seriously messed up, or that your tar program is not preserving
timestamps when it extracts files, or something very strange like that.
Here are the dates on the 3.79.1 i18n directory; note in all cases the
.mo file is newer than the .po file:

I'll look at this one.
