Weird.  `./config.status --recheck' should run only if
`config.status' is older than `configure' ; and that shouldn't
be the case here since the test runs

  echo frob > configure
  echo frob > config.status

That looks like a timestamp issue.

Similarly, from your first post (when you build Automake):
 cmc> Making all in .
 cmc> cd . && /bin/sh ./config.status Makefile 
 cmc> config.status: creating Makefile
there should be no reason to run `./config.status Makefile'
here, since Makefile should be up-to-date already (created by
./config.status when you run ./configure).

What kind of file system are you using here?  If it's something
like NFS then a probable cause is that your host isn't
date-synchronized with the file server.
