Few failures I found:

This is a false positive, but the test could probably be improved:
on this machine /dev/sdb2 is bound-mount in /etc/stab like so:
===
/dev/sdb        /scratch  ext4   relatime,user_xattr  0    2
/scratch/tmp    /tmp      none   defaults,bind        0    0

On Debian 8.9 on i686 (32bit) virtual machine:

FAIL: tests/cp/fiemap-perf
(log attached).

AIX:
coreutils now fails during configure with:
[....]
checking POSIX termios... yes
checking whether use of TIOCGWINSZ requires termios.h... no
checking for 64-bit time_t... no
configure: error: in 
`/home/agn/pretest.2017-12-21.SHpgup/coreutils-8.28.61-70c84.05GXkz/coreutils-8.28.61-70c84':
configure: error: This package requires a 64-bit 'time_t' type, which 
your system appears to support. You might try configuring with 
'CPPFLAGS="-m64" LDFLAGS="-m64"'. To build with a 32-bit time_t anyway 
(not recommended), configure with 'TIME_T_32_BIT_OK=yes'.
See `config.log' for more details
[....]

This could be considered as a regression, as it compiled fine
in previous versions (at least some of the coreutils programs).

I haven't yet tried with "CFLAGS=-m64".

No failures on the following (from the GCC compile farm):
   Debian unstable / Sparc64
   CentOS 7 / ppc64le
   CentOS 7 / pcc64

will have more results soon.
