But I have one difference in make-check results; I am getting:

SKIP: fail-eperm.log

SKIP: fail-eperm.log (exit: 77)
===============================

./../../../coreutils-6.9-354-68c33a/tests/rm/fail-eperm: /sources/build-coreutils/tests/rm: not writable by user `nobody'
./../../../coreutils-6.9-354-68c33a/tests/rm/fail-eperm: skipping this test

grep nobody /etc/passwd:
nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/:/bin/false

Whereas it just succeeded when building from $(srcdir).
(And I do have /tmp, with mode 1777...).

Ah, I see, the untarred sources' directories all have 777,
whereas the build directory has 755 throughout.  That explains.
Sorry for that noise.
