I don't think it's the same bug. Gnulib still does not use getextmntent.

> I think recent coreutils build well on 64bit solaris.

According to the cited man page, the effect of not using getextmntent
is visible at run-time, not at compile-time.

> If there are no objections I will close this bug in couple of days.

Objection.
