Thanks for trying that. "make check" is still trying to build stdbuf, which suggests that your build process did not rerun automake et al, after my change to src/Makefile.am. Here's a tarball with those two not-yet-pushed changes: http://meyering.net/code/tmp/coreutils-7.4.127-d2510.tar.xz With it, it won't matter if you don't have new enough tools like automake, autoconf, etc. installed on that target system.
