Thanks for the feedback.
It helps us plan a release to learn of successful
(and failing) builds/tests on different types of systems.

So if you can spare a couple minutes to build/test on more systems, please do.
E.g.,

    wget http://meyering.net/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.gz
    wget http://meyering.net/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.gz.sig
    gpg --verify coreutils-ss.tar.gz.sig &&
    gzip -dc coreutils-ss.tar.gz | tar xf - &&
    (cd coreutils-7* && ./configure && make && make -k check ) >& log

or if you have xz, (if not, nag your favorite distro maintainer)

    wget http://meyering.net/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz
    wget http://meyering.net/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz.sig
    gpg --verify coreutils-ss.tar.xz.sig &&
    xz -dc coreutils-ss.tar.xz | tar xf - &&
    (cd coreutils-7* && ./configure && make && make -k check ) >& log

Then examine the log, and if something failed, send it to this list.

If the gpg signature verification fails, don't skip it.
Just run this to download my key:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys B9AB9A16
