This bug was fixed in the package coreutils - 8.13-3.2ubuntu1
---------------
coreutils (8.13-3.2ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- [80] Make 'uname -i -p' return the real processor/hardware, instead of
unknown.
- Build-depend on gettext:any instead of on gettext, so that apt-get can
properly resolve build-dependencies on the tool when cross-building.
* Backport upstream patches to fix data-loss and free-memory read bugs in
'sort -u' (LP: #1038468).
coreutils (8.13-3.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Don't declare separate build-arch/build-indep targets when they just
fall through to the same common build rule, since they don't have correct
target dependencies themselves. Closes: #670481.
* Enable hardening build flags. Thanks to Moritz Muehlenhoff for the
patch. Closes: #653743.
* debian/patches/99_Werror-format-string.dpatch: fix the gnulib test suite
so that it doesn't fail to build with hardening flags on.
* Mark coreutils Multi-Arch: foreign. Thanks to Colin Watson.
Closes: #649397.
* debian/patches/99_tests-misc-sort-continue-Port-to-Fedora-15.dpatch:
cherry-pick from upstream to fix a build failure whenever the build
system happens to be holding an fd open, as happens when running in
certain environments (e.g., Lucas's test rebuild farm, or bzr-builddeb).
Closes: #669555.
