I see...

Sorry about that..

It's hard to think of some things that are their own separate
projects as not being "coreutils" as they were a core part
of any unix system...  (that isn't meant to say anything about
where they "should" be located, just that the name of coreutils
tends to be a bit all encompassing of a few side projects...

Sigh.
