I notice that the output of stat from coreutils-5.1.2 produces a blank
line (marked by ---> below) at the end of its report:

        203 eilat::coreutils-5.1.2.p1> /usr/local/bin/stat /bin/true
          File: `/bin/true'

Spurious empty trailing lines are atypical of GNU and Unix software,
so perhaps the empty line should be eliminated.
