I installed the following into both gnulib and coreutils, to port the
utimens module to Solaris 10, which has yet another primitive for
setting file time stamps (and yet another primitive that can't do it
to full resolution! When will these guys learn?).

* lib/utimens.c (futimens): Use futimesat if available.
Prefer it to futimes since it doesn't have the futimes bug.
* m4/utimens.m4 (gl_UTIMENS): Check for futimesat.
