coreutils has the following notes:
The tools provided by GNU coreutils are prefixed with the character 'g' by
default to distinguish
them from the BSD commands.
For example, cp becomes gcp and ls becomes gls.
If you want to use the GNU tools by default, add this directory to the
front of your PATH environment
variable:
/opt/local/libexec/gnubin/
