did you unpack it inside the dir, or over top ? i.e. you want to do:
tar xf coreutils-8.23.tar.xz
tar xf coreutils-8.23-man.tar.xz
you do *not* want to do:
tar xf coreutils-8.23.tar.xz
cd coreutils-8.23
tar xf coreutils-8.23-man.tar.xz
if that still fails, after you unpack both, try doing:
set -- man/*.x
touch ${@/%x/1}
