Actually, looking at the implementation: Can someone please fill a bug report with GNU for this crap? The criterion for working they are using: it supports --version. That's utter crap and completely unacceptable. Seriously, black list ancient systems if you want, but demanding everything to be GNUish is not. Joerg
