Thanks for the heads up.  I will look into this; I suspect a line ending
condition is causing the grief.  It is on my list of things to fix for
coreutils-5.94-5.

However, since I suspect line endings (even though all your directories
are mounted binmode, which is good), copying and pasting from your email
did not give me the same files that you were testing with (I was only able
to reproduce Paul's output).  Please send the actual (short) problem files
as an attachment, with line-endings preserved, so that I can more easily
reproduce your situation.
