Compiling a testdir
- on Linux (to test the case where gettimeofday is present),
- in a cross-compile to Cygwin (to test the case where gettimeofday is
assumed to clobber localtime's buffer),
- in a cross-compile to Mingw (to test the case of missing gettimeofday)
I again come up with sev

Ye
When building coreutils from scratch using "make -j3" on a uniprocessor
system, I encountered this failure:
...
mv configmake.h-t configmake.h
mv stdint.h-t stdint.h
test -d sys || mkdir sys
test -d sys || mkdir sys
rm -f sys/stat.h-t sys/stat.h
{ echo '/* DO NOT EDIT! GENERATED AUTO

Hi,
The poll module fail under Win32 because of the check for FD_SETSIZE.
Windows use a linear array of sockets (of size FD_SETSIZE). The
descriptor value is not used to address the array.
Attached is a patch that fixe this issue.

It's useful for that particular case, but there are other cases
where it's not useful
