I think you're on to something with the timestamp.

Tar was also throwing up a bunch of warnings about files in the archive being
from the future, and it wouldn't surprise me if this somehow confused configure.

The source of the problem was vmware - when you suspend a virtual machine, some
strange things can happen to the system time unless you enable a certain option
to keep it in sync.

I reset the system clock on the VM and rebuilt the package, and all appears to
be normal.  Closing bug.
