Coreutils version 6.4 has been released.
If you haven't heard about the GNU coreutils, the FAQ is a good
place to start: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/faq/>.
This is a stable release.
Changes since 6.3 have been solely to fix bugs and to improve
portability and robustness.
A summary of the user-visible changes since 6.3 is included below.
For older changes see the distributed NEWS file, or this link:
  <http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/coreutils/coreutils/NEWS?view=markup>
Does this include all the patches that have been flying around for NSK?
I've been meaning to apply those, but between some in gnulib, some in
coreutils, and some that need manual filtering to apply at all, I
haven't gotten to it.

That release includes a snapshot of gnulib state from
the day of the release.  So, yes, it should have all of
the patches mentioned on this list and on bug-gnulib.

Thanks. (And I already saw Paul's 'yes, but...'.)

And here I was, thinking silence meant everything worked :-)

Nope, sorry. :-) I've just been busy and/or gone for the last week-give-or-take.

Just to be clear: given how much trouble this has been, I fully intend to proactively say something when I *do* get a build completed (but probably I'll be dealing with 'make check' errors first).
