Thanks, but that's already fixed.
The latest is here:
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/fetish/textutils-2.0.19.tar.gz
Now it says this:
$ comm --help
Usage: comm [OPTION]... LEFT_FILE RIGHT_FILE
Compare sorted files LEFT_FILE and RIGHT_FILE line by line.
-1 suppress lines unique to left file
-2 suppress lines unique to right file
-3 suppress lines that appear in both files
--help display this help and exit
--version output version information and exit
