error building coreutils on Solaris 9 - Makefile:541: *** missing separator

[Poor Yorick]

installing coreutils-6.12 on SunOS 5.9, with gcc-4.2.2 and gnu ld, "make" fails
because there are newlines in the @MAN@ variable:

    Makefile:541: *** missing separator.  Stop.

The following patch eliminates the newlines:
