Description Ryan C. Gordon 2017-08-09 07:15:28 UTC 
All these years I thought this was an autoconf bug.  :)

We sleep for three seconds if configure.in is out of date...

https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/714324c6dd1f/Makefile.in#l128

...but it's extremely likely that Mercurial will write this file with a newer timestamp than configure when cloning or updating, triggering this sleep even though the file isn't _actually_ out of date.

Can we leave the warning message but remove this sleep call? It's annoying when iterating on code and each "make" sleeps longer than the build takes when I forget a semicolon.
