This sounds like a time problem on your system.  Since it looks like
both GCCConfig.kmk and revision.kmk are being updated on each kmk run,
Config.kmk probably has a futuristic timestamp relative to you system
time. "DIR Config.kmk out\win.x86\release\GCCConfig.kmk & TIME" should
easily prove/disprove this theory.
