I don't observe the problem.  I just now grabbed a fresh copy of coreutils.
I ran your test on Ubuntu 10.04 x86 and on RHEL 5 x86-64.

My guess is that you are running coreutils with a slightly out-of-date
gnulib, or vice versa.  You need to have either both of the following patches, or
neither of them.
