Thanks.

You can avoid that problem by running the just-built src/df, e.g.,
cd coreutils-8.7 && src/df -F /tmp/solpkgs

Good. that's the latest.

I suspect an infinite recursion loop in one of gnulib's dup*
replacement functions in lib/.
Best would be if you can run a debugger and find out
precisely where in lib/*.c the recursion is happening.
If you can't, just skip this part.
Also, please send your config.status file (please compress with xz,
bzip2 or gzip; they're preferred over zip) so we can figure out what
config options led to that situation.
