[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Thanks for reporting that problem.  I fixed it by installing the attached patch 
into gnulib; this should eventually percolate into the next coreutils release.

I guess an old s/write/read/ substitution bled into the copyright notice, and 
when we updated notices to point to www.gnu.org we didn't catch the bug.
