You can see that version 8.13 of coreutils does not have this bug.
8.23 and 8.24 both have it, but only when running in an xterm (and
8.23 did not have those tests so it wouldn't have shown up). Did you
perhaps do your runs in a virtual console?

I run almost everything over ssh, but I went to my development system and ran it in both konsole and xterm on an xfce system and it worked properly for me.

Another wild guess -- a difference in kernel config?
