Hi Saul, This is because the aclocal's argument list is very long when building coreutils, it has many arguments (378 m4 files under 'coreutils-8.14/m4'), when the length of the TMPDIR is short this is OK, but when it is longer, there would be a argument list too long error. I think that we have two solutions to fix this problem: 1) Make aclocal accept longer arguments, unfortunately, the native aclocal is running on the host, the length of the argument depends on the host's kernel (The ARG_MAX which is defined in '/usr/include/linux/limits.h'), so this way doesn't work. 2) Make coreutils' acpaths shorter, this is what this patch does, it changes the absolute path to the relative path, so it doesn't care the length of the TMPDIR anymore. // Robert
