Randy,
I have noticed if upgraded from 5.2.1 it sets itself back to the standard lists in /usr/include/unistd.h.

That's odd, even with coreutils 5.2.1 and using:

"DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION=199209 ./configure ..."

my copy of head won't recognise "head +N" as being valid.

In fact in the man pages it is only even mentioned as being an argument for tail.
