Re: [platform-testers] new snapshot available: coreutils-8.27.99-3ebdc3

Few more:

1.
On CentOS 7/ppc64le, "tests/misc/runcon-no-reorder" fail
(as already reported by Kamil dudka in
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2017-08/msg00086.html ).

I see an old thread relating to mismatched 'runcon' error text here:
 https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2008-06/msg00175.html

The host is gcc112.fsffrance.org (from the GCC compile farm) - easy to
test/reproduce there.


2.
"tests/misc/tty" also fails on OpenSolaris 5.10 and 5.11, i86pc and
sparc.
The log shows:
====
[.....]
+ test -t 0
+ returns_ 1 tty
not a tty

3.
I previously reported 9 failures for OpenIndiana 5.11
( https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2017-08/msg00089.html
item #3 ).
These do not fail on OpenSolaris 5.10/5.11 i86pc/sparc.
So perhaps a problem specific to OpenIndiana.


4.
"tests/ln/sf-1" also fails on older BSDs (OpenBSD 5.9, 6.0, FreeBSD 9.3,
10.1).
