Thanks for following up. LC_ALL='C' should be a bit safer. I think we've figured out the problem: a missing dependency in the coreutils build process. Coreutils requires gettext 0.15 and sometimes dumps core if you link it against an older version. So you should be able to fix the problem by linking to gettext 0.15 (or later). The dependency-checking bug was fixed in CVS coreutils here, using Eric Blake's suggestion: http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/coreutils/configure.ac?root=coreutils&r1=1.78&r2=1.79 _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
