DO NOT, repeat DO NOT, under any circumstance unmerge coreutils.
You would find yourself without the most commonly used commands:
cat, ls, cp, mv, ln, id, chmod, chgrp, chown, tr, cut, join, split, mkdir,
mknod, mkfifo, nice, nohup, paste...
about 100 of them. Then emerge can't work anymore (and a few more scripts).
You're stuck.
I know, I did it once. Getting back a working system was hairy...
