** Bug fixes
+ du -x no longer counts root directories of other file systems.
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]
+
+ ls --color many-entry-directory was uninterruptible for too long
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-5.2.1]
+
+ ls's -k option no longer affects how ls -l outputs file sizes.
+ It now affects only the per-directory block counts written by -l,
+ and the sizes written by -s. This is for compatibility with BSD
+ and with POSIX 2008. Because -k is no longer equivalent to
+ --block-size=1KiB, a new long option --kibibyte stands for -k.
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-4.5.4]
+
+ ls -l would leak a little memory (security context string) for each
+ nonempty directory listed on the command line, when using SELinux.
+ [bug probably introduced in coreutils-6.10 with SELinux support]
+
+ rm -rf DIR would fail with "Device or resource busy" on Cygwin with NWFS
+ and NcFsd file systems. This did not affect Unix/Linux-based kernels.
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-8.0, when rm began using fts]
+
+ stat -f now recognizes the FhGFS and PipeFS file system types.
+
+ tac no longer fails to handle two or more non-seekable inputs
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0]
+
+ tail -f no longer tries to use inotify on GPFS or FhGFS file systems
+ [you might say this was introduced in coreutils-7.5, along with inotify
+ support, but the new magic numbers weren't in the usual places then.]
+
+** Changes in behavior
+
+ tail -f now uses polling (not inotify) when any of its file arguments
+ resides on a file system of unknown type. In addition, for each such
+ argument, tail -f prints a warning with the FS type magic number and a
+ request to report it to the bug-reporting address.
+
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 8.14 (2011-10-12) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+ ls --dereference no longer outputs erroneous "argetm" strings for
+ dangling symlinks when an 'ln=target' entry is in $LS_COLORS.
+ [bug introduced in fileutils-4.0]
+
+ ls -lL symlink once again properly prints "+" when the referent has an ACL.
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-8.13]
+
+ sort -g no longer infloops for certain inputs containing NaNs
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-8.5]
+
+** Improvements
+
+ md5sum --check now supports the -r format from the corresponding BSD tool.
+ This also affects sha1sum, sha224sum, sha384sum and sha512sum.
+
+ pwd now works also on systems without openat. On such systems, pwd
+ would fail when run from a directory whose absolute name contained
+ more than PATH_MAX / 3 components. The df, stat and readlink programs
+ are also affected due to their use of the canonicalize_* functions.
+
+** Changes in behavior
+
+ timeout now only processes the first signal received from the set
+ it is handling (SIGTERM, SIGINT, ...). This is to support systems that
+ implicitly create threads for some timer functions (like GNU/kFreeBSD).
+
+** Build-related
+
+ "make dist" no longer builds .tar.gz files.
+ xz is portable enough and in wide-enough use that distributing
+ only .tar.xz files is enough.
+
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 8.13 (2011-09-08) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
chown and chgrp with the -v --from= options, now output the correct owner.
I.E. for skipped files, the original ownership is output, not the new one.
[bug introduced in sh-utils-2.0g]
** Improvements
+ cp -p now copies trivial NSFv4 ACLs on Solaris 10. Before, it would
+ mistakenly apply a non-trivial ACL to the destination file.
+
cp and ls now support HP-UX 11.11's ACLs, thanks to improved support
in gnulib.
Changes inherited from gnulib address a build failure on HP-UX 11.11
when using /opt/ansic/bin/cc.
+ Numerous portability and build improvements inherited via gnulib.
+
* Noteworthy changes in release 8.12 (2011-04-26) [stable]
