Just a note that there is a race with inotify in tail (coreutils-8.24) that sometimes causes tests/tail-2/assert.sh to fail.

New patch in repo coreutils-8.24-ulink_notification_race-1.patch that fixes tail. Patch allows the test to pass as well. IIUC, it is hardly a serious problem, but should be fixed either by fixing tail, or killing the test (sed /assert.sh/d -i Makefile.in). Fixing tail is obviously preferred. I'll get around to this and others I've mentioned recently in the next day or two. Still looking into other suggestions made over the past week.
