No - I see this every so often. I don't know whether its a gcc or
binutils problem.

Anyhow, make clean abd all is happy.

I've assumed (and still do) its a make quirk and something to do with
`close' time stamps for no real good reason.

When I get this, I would at /proc/ksyms and the symbols would be
there, with different version info; Shaya, is this what you see?
