Details:

I downloaded the make 3.81 source and compiled in the AIX 5.3 machine as per
the steps in the INSTALL file.

The steps I used was
1. ./configure --prefix=PREFIX
2. make
3. make install

After these process i pointed to the builded make.

The problem now is that make recompiles the source completely even though the
files are not modified. Makefile which I'm using is compiling fine in SOLARIS
and HP.

Please help me in this to get rid of this problem.
