Thanks for the report. I suspect that is merely a weakness in the test script and not a real problem, and in fact Pádraig Brady posted a patch that probably fixes it here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.announce/65/focus=867 Just in case, can you tell us about your system (i.e., uname -a) and file system type (df -T .) ?
