native solaris 2.7
>Description:
gcc/Makefile.in does not use the the "touch" command because of bugs with nanosecond time stamps on native solaris 2.7 and native solaris 2.8.

Hoever, libiberty/Makefile.in and gcc/mklibgcc.in still have "touch" commands in them.
I have seen unreproducible build failures which look like the fault of "touch".

See:
  http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-05/msg00487.html
  http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-06/msg01558.html
>How-To-Repeat:
I can't squeeze a reproducible failure out of this.
>Fix:
Change libiberty/Makefile.in and gcc/mklibgcc.in to use a different command to make timestamp files,
just as gcc/Makefile.in uses a $(STAMP) command.
