One _advantage_ of the coreutils version is that is implements a -c switch

[06:59 AM [EMAIL PROTECTED] su -h
Usage: su [options] [login]
Options:
-c, --command COMMAND pass COMMAND to the invoked shell
-h, --help display this help message and exit
-, -l, --login make the shell a login shell
-m, -p,
--preserve-environment do not reset environment variables, and keep
the same shell
-s, --shell SHELL use SHELL instead of the default in passwd
