Of the commands that aren't in pending, no. If I was aware of anything that prevented them from replacing other versions, they'd be in pending. The problem is missing commands, sh being the biggest one. (I'd say sh is maybe 1/3 done? It parses redirects but doesn't do them, it can assign environment variables but won't expand them in arguments, etc.) According to the status page's "development" section, these commands were needed by aboriginal linux once upon a time, and are missing: awk dd diff expr fdisk gzip sh tr wget less dnsdomainname ftpd init less mdev route vi resize2fs tune2fs fsck.ext2 genext2fs mke2fs xzcat (Several of them are in pending, but I wouldn't trust them yet.) I also note that I'm currently fixing tar's ability to read old tarballs with varying format stuff. (My torture test is genext2fs-1.4.1.tar.gz .) So you probably want to use a current git snapshot (which is more or less what should be in the next release, which is several weeks late already...)
