coreutils-8.32 doesn't have those options. Apparently you have a 
modified copy. You can verify this by getting the original from:

https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.32.tar.gz

It would have saved time for both of us if the people who modified your 
copy had changed the package name and bug-reporting address. Once you 
find out who modified your copy, please suggest that to them.
