In particular, coreutils computes a list of bin_progs at configure time
via the auxiliary script build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh, so it
sounds like you need to tweak that file in order to fix the automake
failures about no program corresponding to src_retab as a canonical name
(which in turn may require another run of bootstrap to propagate the
changes where they are needed).
