I have a Signed-off-by tag, are you referring to something else? Can you give me more details about Upstream-Status? I've google'd this problem for a bit but could not find an existing patch for it, nor a bug filled for this matter. Since I don't know yet if what I'm fixing it's really a bug (or a misconfiguration on my side) I send this RFC to get a hold of whether I'm on the good track here or not. If this patch turns out to be valid, I'll get in touch with the guys from coreutils' mailing lists, and try to push it upstream. radu
