+ * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Test for the 2006-08-17 `ls -CF' fix.
+
* README: Describe potential "pre-C99 build failure", and work-around.
Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being
#!/bin/sh
# Ensure that ls --file-type does not call stat unnecessarily.
+# Also check for the dtype-related (and fs-type dependent) bug
+# in coreutils-6.0 that made ls -CF columns misaligned.
