[Bug 1878934] [NEW] wrong atime and mtime in file config.h.in created using autoheader in a bind-mounted directory

[Alejandro Pinio]

Public bug reported:

1) ❯ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release:	18.04

2) ❯ apt-cache policy autoconf
autoconf:
  Installed: 2.69-11
  Candidate: 2.69-11
  Version table:
 *** 2.69-11 500
        500 http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) expected behavior: atime and mtime of file config.h.in file created
using autoheader in a bind-mounted directory are representative of the
time at which the file was created

4) actual behavior: atime and mtime of file config.h.in file created
using autoheader in a bind-mounted directory are rounded to the second
