I am having problems emerging util-linux-2.26 as part of the final stage of the 
bootstrapping process. The error I stems from this:
./.libs/libcommon.a(libcommon_la-fileutils.o): In function `xmkstemp':
fileutils.c:(.text+0x61): undefined reference to `mkostemp'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:5519: recipe for target 'blockdev' failed

I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client release 5.10 (Tikanga) which has 
glibc 2.5 (no option to update system, unfortunately)
I googled a bit and it seems that there was support for old systems like mine 
that was removed as it was fixed upstream 
[http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/336650/]. Is it possible that the package is 
still broken? Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this? Thank you!
