I think that adding an email regardless would be good
Yes, now's a good time to revisit the decision in 2013 to remove the
bug-reporting email address[1]. Plus, the current code is confusing.
How about the attached coreutils patch? It simplifies the code and goes
back to the old way of doing things, which includes outputting the bug
reporting address.
If this doesn't generate the output we want, surely we should change
Gnulib's emit_bug_reporting_address rather than try to reinvent it.

Thanks for discussing this on list.
The main reason for the current instructions
was to avoid non bug reports on the bug-coreutils@gnu.org list,
but I haven't strong opinions on this,
so am happy to go with the proposed patch.
cheers,
