Hi,
once in a while make complains that some of my files have timestamps
in
the future. I've investigated a little, and it seems that this affecs
only
<snip>
You can get this behavior if the files are on a server whose time is
not syncked to your computer.

Good catch. We're using roaming profiles here, so my home dir is on some
network drive. If I re-run the test on a local disc, I get the
following:
$ ~/workspace/emacs-bug/20140731clockskew/clockskewtest.sh

That is, no time difference. But why does the network drive affect only
emacs and not touch?
