Hi Jim,
We found a crash bug in paste, due to an unbounded buffer overflow.
The bug is similar to the ptx bug that we reported earlier, and is due
to a lone backslash following the -d flag.
Here is an input that crashes libc on my machine:
$ paste -d\\

hello,
i'm not shure about what the LSB says to this but many progs search for
tools at places where they aren't. for example, i have the coreutils in

lines from a piped output.
