I don't observe the problem. I just now grabbed a fresh copy of coreutils. I ran your test on Ubuntu 10.04 x86 and on RHEL 5 x86-64. My guess is that you are running coreutils with a slightly out-of-date gnulib, or vice versa. You need to have either both of the following patches, or neither of them. http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=commitdiff;h=2dd21704d63c4e7567695a9e43dc1631b930efe2 http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commitdiff;h=89b0db35db10a8beccaf83909c7f62f127fb5821
