Well, that got me a bit further. Thanks.
Now the error from 'make' is:

  CC       lib/parse-datetime.o
In file included from lib/gettext.h:26:0,
                 from parse-datetime.y:71:

parse-datetime.y:2301:27: error: format '%lld' expects argument of type 
'long long int', but argument 2 has type 'time_t {aka long int}' 
[-Werror=format=]
parse-datetime.y:2301:25: note: in expansion of macro '_'
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
Makefile:9842: recipe for target 'lib/parse-datetime.o' failed
make[2]: *** [lib/parse-datetime.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/chris/Downloads/coreutils'
Makefile:6581: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

I tried ./configure TIME_T_32_BIT_OK=yes - didn't make any difference.

I'm going to try again from scratch.
I'll let you know.
