After seeing a more-recent bug report <https://bugs.gnu.org/78244> about 
this I came up with what I think is a better patch for Bug#26371, and 
installed it into Savannah coreutils here:

https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/commit/?id=aec89a3e7dfaed1545b2dcaa8525df21cf61a37e

Thanks again for reporting this (8 years ago!).
