Thanks for the report.
If you can reproduce that with the latest stable release, coreutils-6.6,
then we'll be even more interested.  Would you please try that?

The announcement includes "build-from-scratch" instructions:

Alternatively, can you make your (compressed) input file available
via e.g., ftp?  Or better still, can you pare it down to a smaller
file that still evokes the bug?
