Thanks for the reports.
The version of futimens used by coreutils (from gnulib)
takes both a file descriptor and a file name, for portability,
so that if your system doesn't support the FD-based functions
it can still do its job by falling back on the filename-based ones.
The first step is to rename the gnulib function (patch below), since
it is trying to do more than glibc's futimens. Then, we can extend
the renamed gnulib function so that it uses glibc's futimens when possible.
For coreutils, the change is trivial:
just s/futimens/gl_futimens/ in each of copy.c and touch.c.
I nearly changed it in gnulib, but since a few other projects (at least
gzip and tar) also use futimens, I'll wait for Paul to sign off.

* lib/utimens.c (gl_futimens): Rename from futimens,
now that glibc-2.6 declares futimens.
