In 2014 gnulib gained the following commit:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=502809019bd2ca3ce3d041d18c35ce9420eedb72

    mountlist: avoid hasmntopt const type warning on solaris

Which seems to address a similar issue as this bug ( 
https://bugs.gnu.org/6816 ).

I think recent coreutils build well on 64bit solaris.
If there are no objections I will close this bug in couple of days.
