Re: false --help vs. false --version

[Paul Eggert]

I love poking sticks into hornets' nests, so I can't resist mentioning
that coreutils "true" sometimes returns false:

   $ ./true --version >&-
   ./true: write error: Bad file number
   $ echo $?
   1

This is not a POSIX conformance issue, since "true" always returns
true if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set; still, perhaps true's exit-status
behavior should either be documented (if it's what's desired) or
changed (if not).
