Clock skew detected?

["Hossein S. Zadeh" <hossein bf rmit edu au>]

Hi there,
I just received a new server today. After installing RH5.2, I got the
latest kernel (2.2.2), and compiled it. I noticed that any invokation of
'make' results in the following error:
make: *** Warning:  Clock skew detected.  Your build may be incomplete.

I should add that the compiled kernel works fine. Compile of the very same
kernel source on my workstation (also RH5.2) does not produce any error.

I wonder if the error could be a result of a faulty M/B or an almost dead
BIOS battery? Any ideas?
