Thanks for the report.
For starters, I suggest that you try to use a different compiler.

Here's one problem that should be easy to fix:

That seems to be due to a failure in the test for flex-array support.
Would you please look in config.log to see how the compilation
that checks "for flexible array member" failed?
At worst, you can send a copy of the entire config.log file to
the list (bug-gnulib@gnu.org, Cc'd, not bug-coreutils).
