I've confirmed the failure on:
$ uname -a
SunOS xxx 5.10 Generic_142900-06 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440 Solaris
via gnulib's test-fdutimensat:

It looks like Solaris 10 may have broken their hack where
futimesat(fd,NULL,time) could set the timestamps of an open fd, which
coreutils is relying on since futimens and utimensat do not exist on
that platform.
I'm looking into it further, but wanted to send this out now.
