Further investigation shows this appears related to how /dev/pts is
mounted in the chroot.

With:

mount -t devpts devpts "${working_dir}/dev/pts" -o newinstance,ptmxmode=666

the test passes on x86_64 but fails on i686.  Removing the "-o" flags
allows the test to pass on i686 but not on x86_64.

So something strange is going on here but it seems unrelated to coreutils.

Sorry for the noise,
Allan
