I see four messages in this thread, before yours:

  address@hidden
  address@hidden
  address@hidden
  address@hidden

and they all Cc'd address@hidden
Hmm... then it hit me.  I hadn't checked the bug-coreutils
approval queue in a while, and maybe no one else had, either.

Yep.  Nicolas' message was there, along with a couple
others and a few pages worth of spam.

Thanks for the prod.
