I like this patch, except I have qualms about
putting a Wikipedia URL in the documentation, as
Wikipedia is not that stable.  Perhaps
<http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/836068> would
be a better URL.  Also, the --help output shouldn't
point to Wikipedia (or to CERT, for that matter);
it should at most refer to the coreutils manual.

Jim and/or Pádraig may have better advice here.
