Here's a snapshot of the latest sources, both from
coreutils and from gnulib. In coreutils proper, the only real
news is the addition of two new programs, timeout and truncate,
and the addition of the --quiet option for md5sum & co.
However, in gnulib, Bruno Haible added comprehensive ACL support,
so if you care about that (or just want to see if things still work
on your favorite combination of OS and file system type), please
give this a try.
If you want to help out specifically on the ACL-testing front,
here's Bruno's call for testing, with detailed instructions:
