Bug Description

Both coreutils and util-linux need extra autoconf variables setting in order to build on precise.

See logs:
http://people.linaro.org/~wookey/buildd/precise/sbuild-ma/coreutils_8.13-3ubuntu3-precise-ma-cross-armel-20120420-024132.38763.log
http://people.linaro.org/~wookey/buildd/precise/sbuild-ma/util-linux_2.20.1-1ubuntu3-precise-ma-cross-armel-20120420-024137.38902.log

This patch adds those.

It has been carefully tested in precise and only affects cross-building so is very safe as a late update.

I do actually have a pile more config.cache updates which are almost certainly improvements and harmless, but this is the minimal patch which fixes important breakage and nothing else.
