Hello Pádraig! Yesterday coreutils did not build because of use of -O0 instead of -Os before. This morning I am using simply -O, and the tests stop at the test after existing-perm-dir.sh (last line in build log), which is existing-perm-race.sh.
coreutils-9.7/tests/cp has:
-rw-r--r-- 1 macports admin 6687 23. Mai 09:03 existing-perm-race.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 macports admin 6194 23. Mai 09:03 existing-perm-dir.log

-rwxr-xr-x 1 macports admin 1639 7. Jan 13:36 abuse.sh
which indicates that existing-perm-race.sh and file-perm-race.sh have been
patched, as the compile log also indicates:
patch phase started at Fri May 23 08:21:43 CEST 2025

I observed an unpleasant behaviour of 'make check': When it's killed
coreutils-9.7/tests/cp/existing-perm-race.log just vanishes. Is there a way to
keep that "unfinished" log file, in order to find in it a possible clue for
some misbehaviour?
The test log contains a complaint (?) about not knowing the local file systems
– they are:
