Thanks for the report, but why are you using coreutils-8.7?
The latest is 8.12, with 8.13 due this week or next.

Can you test with coreutils-8.12 instead?
If you find any test failures there, I would be most interested.
Odds are pretty good that any failures causing test failures in
coreutils-8.7 were fixed long ago, in subsequent releases.
