bug#6816: df bug on 64-bit Solaris (need to use getextmntent)

Hello,

>From mnttab(4) on Solaris 10:

     ...

     WARNINGS

     The mnttab file system provides the previously  undocumented
     dev=xxx  option  in  the option string for each mounted file
     system. This is provided for legacy applications that  might
     have been using the dev=information option.

     Using  dev=option  in  applications is strongly discouraged.
     The device number string represents a  32-bit  quantity  and
     might  not  contain  correct  information in 64-bit environ-
     ments.

     Applications requiring device number information for mounted
     file  systems  should  use  the  getextmntent(3C) interface,
     which functions properly in either 32-  or  64-bit  environ-
     ments.

Indeed, if one compiles coreutils 64-bit, the logic breaks down around line 718 
of df.c:

        if (statp->st_dev == me->me_dev
            && !STREQ (me->me_type, "lofs")
            && (!best_match || best_match->me_dummy || !me->me_dummy))
          {

At this point, me->me_dev contains a wrongly packed (32-bit) device number, 
which forces the find_mount_point() code path (causing other unpleasantries).  
The following patch against coreutils v8.5 fixes the problem:
