Just build coreutils on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.11.5 (El Capitan) I think the results are excellent, only four tests failed and they were dealing with changing group file permissions. And El Capitan is “locked down” tighter than a “gnats ass” when dealing with permissions. I needed to turnoff “rootless” and munge the permissions on /usr/local to just get things to compile. So all in all only failing four tests is pretty darn good out of the box!
Your message seemed to have been lost and not replied to in 2 years, sorry about that. The test log shows the following failures: === FAIL: tests/chgrp/basic FAIL: tests/chgrp/posix-H FAIL: tests/chgrp/recurse FAIL: tests/cp/existing-perm-race === Are you still experiencing these failures (perhaps with more recent coreutils version, or more recent Mac OS X version) ? -assaf
