I think that's a mistake. With su, we should have a new name for the weird Hurd version, because it is not backward compatible. But the Hurd sync is fully backward compatible, and there's no reason to have it under a new name. Either we should arrange to have the Debian sh-utils package not install sync on the Hurd, or (better) we should submit the Hurd features to the sh-utils maintainer and merge it. Thomas
