Attempts to build coreutils-8.24 on Solaris 10 SPARC failed with an
unresolved symbol:

        checking whether fdatasync is declared... yes
        checking for library containing fdatasync... -lrt
          CCLD     src/sync
        Undefined                       first referenced
         symbol                             in file
        fdatasync                           src/sync.o
        ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to src/sync

The -lrt library is not present in the linking in that command.

I restarted the build with "nake LIBS=-lrt", and that led to a
successful build and subsequent validation.
