bug#14024: Test failure in coreutils 8.13

[Ellis N. Thomas]

Pádraig,

        The "make check TESTS..." failed the same on two runs.
(The first performed many compilations, but ended the same.)

        After this had been run, src/ginstall was present (previously
when I failed to find it last time, it must have been removed by
"make clean").

        Versions you requested:
(Could not find how to get version from /usr/bin/install !  Its man
page refers to "BSD  May 7, 2001", and mentions FreeBSD 4.4.)

install --version
install: illegal option -- -
usage: install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
               [-o owner] file1 file2
       install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
               [-o owner] file1 ... fileN directory
       install -d [-v] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] directory ...

        The full stdout&stderr from "make check TESTS..." was redirected to
testinst.log. which is the same as /tests/test-suite.log, except for  
extra lines
at the start and end.  This file is included at the end, after ***  
lines.

        Thanks,
                Ellis
