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]
[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]
