Nice work!

I think it may be unclear for the translators what this is about.
What about using %s and PROGRAM_NAME instead?

Another question:
shouldn't base32 also be run in tests/misc/tty-eof.pl?

Finally, the man page speaks about the online manual at
  http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/base32
I guess the redirection has to be set up manually (in addition to
uploading the new manual)?

Have a nice day,
Berny
