Linux Archive - util-linux in a Solaris x86 prefix - can't emerge - doesn't compile + one minor ebuild-level issue to maybe fix

Hello list,

I'm having a problem emerging sys-apps/util-linux in my prefix in a Solaris 10 x86 container and I need Your help.
The reason I need the package at all is that I need /usr/bin/script - with its "-t" switch. No other functionality would I be interested in. Henceforth I have even tried to reduce the set of USE flags on the package one by one at first, yet nothing delivered. The same holds true for the earlier versions the tree seems to still have - but the 2.17.* versions die on me even in the configure phase complaining about the lack of crypt(). I would be content with either version and yes I know these packages are masked. Still I'm compelled in solving this issue - were it only possible.

Please help me if you can and also forgive my maybe having posted either too little or too many information; it's my first time asking for "official" help after all.
