Any time there's a dependency on coreutils it means either your system 
is missing them, or pkgsrc is looking in the wrong place.

If you have a look at mk/tools/tools.Linux.mk you'll see where we are 
looking for tools on Linux, and if you look at mk/tools/replace.mk and 
specifically the:

  # These tools are all supplied by the sysutils/coreutils package if
  # there is no native tool available.
  #
  _TOOLS.coreutils=...

section, you'll see what tools we're trying to find.

Once you add the correct path to the tool in tools.Linux.mk, or install 
it, then the circular dependency will disappear.

Let us know if we need to add another path to tools.Linux.mk.
