Perhaps 'sleep' is a shell builtin here which is confusing things?
Yes:
$ type sleep
sleep is a shell builtin
Does the following help (I don't have easy access to an alpine system):

Yes. With this change, the failure disappears.
Cool. Applied (as well as all your other coreutils and gnulib changes).
And the other one as well(!).
Instead, a new failure appears (!!):
FAIL: tests/cp/preserve-mode
This is reproducible, not spurious: I ran "make check" 3 times, 3 times the
same result.
Find attached tests/cp/preserve-mode.log.
There is some confusion here.
That looks to be the same failure as analyzed before.
cheers,
