Removing [email protected] from CC since I'm mostly responding to the
part that applies to coreutils.

I don't have a strong preference for either NULL or nullptr. Using them
inconsistently seems terrible for readability, though. So I would be for
s/nullptr/NULL/ or s/NULL/nullptr/ everywhere.

Regarding that warning, it seems nice to use if the compatibility issues
are fixed. It will help me update GNU time which uses 0 instead of NULL
in many places.
