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?

Well, it must have something to do with devices. It might be
significant that Crux and LFS are the systems that have home-made
kernels; the Debian one is stock. What settings should I be looking
for? A whole kernel config file is a bit big to post.
Mine is at

Try a diff with yours.
It would be interesting if a few other people could try this -- see
if they agree with you or with me.
I agree.
