What is the synopsis for getrusage on your host?  For example, are you
always supposed to include <sys/time.h> before <sys/resource.h>?
("man getrusage" should tell you this.)

OK, I see the problem.  Thanks.  You can work around the problem by
appending -Dmktemp=rpl_mkstemp to CFLAGS.  I'll fix the problem by
incorporating gnulib's m4/mkstemp.m4 into the next diffutils release.
