When make runs it tries to update the Makefile rules by reading all of included Makefiles. During the perf build it checks PERF-VERSION-FILE to get the current version number. But it triggers Makefile update so that make runs again with the update Makefile and, in turn, users will see duplicate CHK message on the second path. Running make with -d option for debugging tells me this: GNU Make 3.82 Built for x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Actually PERF-VERSION-FILE is used only for perf.c to #define PERF_VERSION macro. So make it like a C header file and include it during compiling the perf.c file will remove the need of being included into Makefile. Hench no need to update the Makefile and no CHK lines anymore.
