Failure to compile latest coreutils-6.12

[EA Games]

Hello guys,

I am using 2.6.21.5 kernel (gcc 4.3.2, ld 2.17.50.0.17*). I've tried
compiling the latest coreutils
that I downloaded from the official website and I keep getting the same
error message.

mv unistd.h-t unistd.h
make  all-am
make[3]: Entering directory `/mnt/lfs/tmp/coreutils-6.12/lib'
depbase=`echo set-mode-acl.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'`;\
        gcc -std=gnu99  -I.      -g -O2 -MT set-mode-acl.o -MD -MP -MF
$depbase.Tpo -c -o set-mode-acl.o set-mode-acl.c &&\
        mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Po

Also during configure process I've noticed this message.

configure: WARNING: sys/sysmacros.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sys/sysmacros.h:     check for missing prerequisite
headers?
configure: WARNING: sys/sysmacros.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: sys/sysmacros.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be
Compiled"

configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to address@hidden ##

Looks like there is a confusion with the data types <sys/types.h> file which
is followed by the parse error
at the end. Hope this info helps. I'll try editing sys/types.h tomorrow and
see where I can get. I also have applied 2 patches

../coreutils-6.12-i18n-2.patch
../utils/coreutils-6.12-uname-1.patch

It seems to be a bug. Please help me resolve this one.
Thanks for your support, it is greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Andrew
