considering coreutils' track record of buggyness on non-linux systems, especially darwin, it would definitely be better to use /bin/ for anything important. If end-users want to mess up their systems with coreutils, that's their perogative, but best to go with the devil you know for packaging... But then, considering coreutils' track record of buggyness, we should probably update it as well. :) - -- Benjamin Reed a.k.a.
