Thanks for the report. Have you tried with the latest snapshot?
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2010-11/msg00004.html
since it includes some recent gnulib fixes for at least some Solaris 10
bugs?
Also, can you provide a truss report of a failing command, so we can see
exactly how Oracle has broken futimens/utimensat, assuming that you are
correct that it is a bug in setting file times?
