The above look sensible from a _very_ quick review

I see cmp used all over the place (provided by diffutils on my fedora box).
Should I be adding cmp to the requirements in bootstrap.conf?

I also noted that you can restrict the following function
to just coreutils apps as follows?

insert_sorted_if_absent() {
  file=$1
  str=$2
  test -f $file || touch $file
  test "$((echo "$str"; uniq $file) | LC_ALL=C sort | uniq -d)" ||
  echo "$str" | sort -u - $file -o $file ||
  exit 1
}

cheers,
Pádraig.
