This information has already been added to the Texinfo manual, but was
missing from the --help output.

Reported by Vincent Lefevre in http://bugs.debian.org/395430.
This fact was already noted in the Texinfo manual, but not in the
output of --help.

French sorting rules.

LC_CTYPE and LC_NUMERIC to the fr_FR.UTF-8 locale, while setting
LC_MESSAGES=C. Reported by Stefano Lattarini.

and "seconds since epoch" parsing, neither of which
was mentioned in the man page until now.

Suggested by Rick Stanley.

and output this in the messages.

* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Just as without inotify,
tail --follow=name now terminates when the last tailed-by-name file
is unlinked or moved aside. This bug was introduced on 2009-06-15
via commit ae494d4b, "tail: use inotify if it is available".
Reported by Tim Underwood in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/22286
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
* tests/tail-2/follow-name: Test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Parenthesize ternary expression used
as an argument to awk's printf. Otherwise, gawk 3.0.1 and the
one from debian stable's original-awk would get a syntax error.
Reported by Dennis Clarke.
Copyright note: tiny change
The names in THANKS are generated from two sources: the hard-coded
list, THANKS.in, and the names of committers from the git log.
When a contributor on the hard-coded list commits a change,
we remove their now-redundant name from THANKS.in.
* THANKS.in: Remove a now-duplicate name.
* gnulib: Update to latest, to address http://debbugs.gnu.org/8230.
When built on Solaris 9 and run on Solaris 10, touch would segfault.
Reported by Ben Walton.
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
* tests/init.sh: Likewise.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
* src/du.c (main): Fail on AI_ERR_READ error, rather than merely
diagnosing and continuing. Based on a patch by Stefan Vargyas.
Also move the handling of AI_ERR_EOF into the case stmt.
Do not report ferror/fclose(stdin) failure when we've
already diagnosed e.g., failure to read the DIR, above.
Bug introduced by 2008-11-24 commit 031e2fb5, "du: read and
process --files0-from= input a name at a time,".
* src/wc.c: Handle read failure as with du: do not exit
immediately, but rather go on to print any total and to clean-up.
As above, move the handling of AI_ERR_EOF into the case stmt.
* tests/du/files0-from-dir: New file, to test both du and wc.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Before this change, we had a tendency to manually list each
contributor's name in THANKS. Now, each commit "Author" is
included in the generated THANKS file automatically, and most
of the old THANKS file is now a template, THANKS.in.
We'll still have to manually list the names of people who report
problems without a usable patch.
* THANKS.in: New file, derived from THANKS, but removing names of
those who are listed as git log 'Author:'s.
* THANKS: Remove file.
* thanks-gen: New file.
* Makefile.am (THANKS): New rule.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add .mailmap, THANKS.in and thanks-gen.
* .gitignore: Add THANKS and THANKS-to-translators.
* .mailmap: Unify on single address and name-spelling per contributor.
