If you can handle the spew, you could try passing --debug=b to make all the
time so we can examine the messages the next time it bites you.

We should figure out and fix the spurious rebuild problem. But you could
have changed shlib-versions or whatever and then rebuilt in resolv and that
should work right. Setting CPPFLAGS globally in a subdir is highly
questionable. For resolv, I think that setting is really only needed for
gethnamadr.c and so it should be CPPFLAGS-gethnamadr.c instead.
