Your message seemed to have been lost and not replied to in 2 years,
sorry about that.

The test log shows the following failures:
===
FAIL: tests/chgrp/basic
FAIL: tests/chgrp/posix-H
FAIL: tests/chgrp/recurse
FAIL: tests/cp/existing-perm-race
===

Are you still experiencing these failures (perhaps with more recent
coreutils version, or more recent Mac OS X version) ?
