Public bug reported:

Hi,

The French manpages for `head` and `tail` do not mention option `-z`
(aka `--zero-terminated`), whereas the English manpages mention it. Note
that `head --help` and `tail --help` do mention the option (even when
using a French locale).

It looks like the manpages are outdated (they refer to GNU coreutils
8.23, whereas the English ones refer to version 8.30, the latter being
consistent with the version of the `coreutils` package on my system
(8.30-3ubuntu2). Could you update them?

This missing information look quite innocuous, but since I am use to
read manpages, I actually wasted quite some time figuring out how I
could work around this "missing" option :-(

Yours,

Judicaël Courant.
