bug#22880: cut does a strange cut

[Matteo Melli]

Hello,

I found a bug on cut from coreutils version (GNU coreutils) 8.25 in Fedora
rawhide that I can not reproduce in Fedora 23 (version (GNU coreutils)
8.24).

It is quite simple to reproduce with this line:

echo "
> https://github.com/dmak/jaxb-xew-plugin/archive/release-1.0.zip|zip|jaxb-xew-plugin-release-1.0|com.github.jaxb-xew-plugin:jaxb-xew-plugin:jar:1.0"|cut
> -d'|' -f2


This command return:

https://github.com/dmak/jaxb-xew-plugin/archive/release-1.0.zip
> jaxb-xew-plugin-release-1.0
>

On Fedora 23 and how you expect this command should return:

zip

I did not find any bug on the mailing list that compare to this one I
reported. Anyway if it result to be duplicate I apologise.

Thank you,
Matteo
