Hrm, from /usr/share/doc/coreutils/changelog.Debian.gz:
coreutils (5.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
...
* Removed xattr patch. AFAICT this isn't particularly useful for
anything except selinux, and other selinux support isn't included.
Also, the option added with this patch isn't being used
consistently between different linux distributions and I'd rather
not support something that will cause incompatibilities. If anyone
was depending on this support please contact me with details.
(Closes: #244603)
So it looks like Mandriva is using a sort of unoffical patch which tries
to automagically copy all extended attributes.
