John Crispin 3cf47c5c17 build: compare timestamps with a fraction of a second
timestamp.pl decides whether a subdir has work to do. It scans the stamp
file and the source directories, keeps the newest, and reports that the
work is done when the newest one is the stamp. The scan reads the mtime
through the core stat of perl, which truncates it to whole seconds, and
the comparison is strict with the stamp scanned first. Two files that
share a second therefore count as a tie, and a tie says that the work is
done.

include/subdir.mk touches tmp/.build at the start of a build and the
stamp of a subdir at the end, so the two land in the same second once a
build takes less than a second between them. The target install stamp is
the last one of a build, roughly 0.4 s before the build ends, so it is
the one that ties first: the next build then skips target/install and
ships the images of the previous build. Around one build in five was
affected once the build became fast enough.

Read the mtime through Time::HiRes, which reports the fraction as well.
Two touches around a fork no longer share a timestamp. Keep the core
stat where the module is missing, which restores the old behaviour
rather than failing.
