As someone in a time zone 12-24 hours ahead of most of the systems I use I run
into this problem on almost every machine.  I've solved it by adding the
following target to the makefile:

touch:
	touch ./makefile
	find ./ | xargs touch

If you really want to get fancy you could check for $system_date <
$tarball_date and trigger that rule automatically.
