Here is a current snapshot of the bug.

Project: Python
Category: Build
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Bug Group: None
Priority: 5
Submitted by: nobody

Summary: Python-2.1a2: HP make continiously runs the configure script

Details: Source:		Python-2.1a2
OS:		HP-UX 11.00

Commands:
	./configure  (or ./configure --with-threads=no)
	make

Details:
	Once make finishes compiling Python/dynload_hpux.c, it runs the configure
script, which will continue to run over and over.

Comment:
Make seems to think that config.status is older than
configure, even after re-running configure.  I don't know
how that's possible.  configure recreates config.status
when it runs.  It would be helpful if you could give me
all the output from make for a complete cycle.

You could try adding "touch config.status" at the very
end of the config.status target in the makefile and see
if that helps.

Reassigning to Neil, and reclassifying as a build problem.
