The bug-coreutils mailing list was apparently BCC'd on this bug
report. As such replies will go to the BTS but not to the the mailing
list. For those who read the bug-coreutils mailing list archive later
here is a link to the BTS mail archive so that the replies can be

Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10-3
Severity: wishlist
Description:
$ wc -l README
200 README
