As a shot in the dark that btrfs might somehow be to blame, I know that in
Debian sid for quite some time the default is to have /tmp mounted as tmpfs.
How much ram do you have? In the interest of seeing if its something we can
blame on btrfs or your mount options, try changing the mount point of /tmp
in /etc/fstab to something like mine and reinstalling coreutils:
tmpfs	/tmp	tmpfs	defaults,size=2G	0 0
