Build failures of coreutils-8.1 in Fedora build system "koji"

[Ondřej Vašík]

Hi,
I'm trying to package coreutils-8.1 for Fedora Rawhide, but few tests
are failing
( http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1819634&name=build.log ).
I removed all Fedora-only patches to prevent patch-related issues. Koji
build system uses mock build hosted on machine with old RHEL-5 xen
kernel, so this may be the culprit of the issues. Generally there are
two issues - 
1) test 126 = 127  ... koji kernel seems to return EXIT_CANNOT_INVOKE
(126) exit code in cases where EXIT_ENOENT (127) is expected by
testsuite.
2) futimens time functions seem to return ENOSYS there, so the tests are
failing. There are already some workarounds for the RHEL-5 kernels in
utimens.c gnulib file, but it seems some recent change brought the issue
back.

Thanks in advance for considering fixes/suggesting workarounds ( yes,
the easiest is to skip those failing tests for a while ;) ).

Greetings,
         Ondřej Vašík
