You should probably attach your config.log. Looks like mktime test fails and autoconf redefines to rpl_mktime (and findutils does not provide a replacement mktime)
debug seems not to be the culprit, failed in bug #584862 with -debug (which might be a dup ?)
The debug use flag seems to be enabled in bug #584862 . I investigated this a bit, will follow up if I get a useful data point.
I think perhaps we should just remove the debug use flag since that configuration directive is gone from upstream master.
*** Bug 584862 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
i've dropped the flag to match upstream https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=84a3fd801be02b70ab41eb7b8a38cf359403e6ce
