Yes, the current code breaks only in fine-grained cases. Most of the 
time it'll work fine since people rarely compile the same file twice in 
the same second.

Yes, that sounds simpler and better. How about the attached patch?

Subject: [PATCH] Improve org-compile-file timestamp handling
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* lisp/org/org-macs.el (org-file-newer-than-p):
Don’t lose timestamp information in an attempt to work around
problems on filesystems with coarse-grained timestamps.
(org-compile-file): Use only filesystem timestamps;
don’t try to compare them to the current time, as
the filesystem clock may be different from our clock.
