build of coreutils fails with many many messages

build of coreutils fails with many many messages

[Denis Excoffier]

Hello,

I tried to build coreutils-8.25 with the latest cygwin (2.5.0-0.10 or 2.4.1-1)
and all the latest packages, and as 'configure' seems to pass ok, 'make'
fails with hundreds of lines of messages like below.

Please can someone reproduce this (Windows 7, 32bits)?

Regards,

Denis Excoffier

This looks like the gnulib issue that I reported in 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2016-03/msg00054.html.  Try 
applying the fix from that thread to the gnulib tree in the coreutils 
sources.

The patch indicated works perfectly. It also applies to wget-1.17.1. Thank you.
