Building coreutils is somewhat involved because it needs quite new
versions of a number of dependencies. It is not as simple as I would
like. But having said all of that coreutils is building for me using
the latest gnulib. Take a peek.

gnulib often breaks downstream tools but today's version is working
for me.

Same as the versions here. In addition to standard things I also have
autoconf-2.61, automake-70bca13b, gettext-1.16.1, and m4-1.4.8. Those
are the versions that are building for me.

Not sure about that. Perhaps it would help to compare the bootstrap
output you are getting to the output here:

Somewhere there is a system test that is behaving differently.
